The article is aimed at researching of theoretical and methodological approaches to the building of complex cloud services; evaluating the basic structural elements of service and the methods of comparative analysis of variants in implementing cloud services with attention to functional requirements as to the created cloud service and parameters of QoS. The current status of models of development of cloud services is analyzed, relevance of researching the methods and models of creation and functioning of systems of complex cloud services is substantiated. A methodical approach to the problem of projecting complex cloud service on the basis of the advanced method of analysis of complex systems, taking account of quantitative and qualitative parameters of its structural elements, is proposed. This method will allow defining a set of projecting solutions for cloud services that would reflect the developer’s requirements towards the functionality and quality of performance of cloud services. Cloud technology is an alternative to the traditional model of local use of hardware and software and can affect the balance of power in the global and national markets, both software and hardware. Thus, being of considerable practical interest, the problem of research of processes of building and functioning of cloud services is relevant and requires special attention.
