Abstract: The cloudification of railways aims to improve operational efficiency and passenger experience. It enables an increase in the capacity, reliability, and safety of the railway system and opens up the industry for the delivery of new products and services. Cloud performance management plays an important role in efficient planning of capacity needs and in managing scalability. In the authors' previous research, an architecture of railway control system that leverages cloud and cloud native railway operations is presented. In this paper, application programming interfaces for railway cloud resource management that promote automation and interoperability are proposed. Based on use case analysis, the cloud resource performance management functions are identified and synthesized as a RESTful service. Performance management job status models are built that reflect the relationship between an application and the service and can be used to prove the viability of the approach.
