The Blockchain Forum and the RPA Forum have in common that they are centered around an emerging and exciting technology. The blockchain is a sophisticated distributed ledger technology, while RPA software allows for mimicking human, repetitive actions.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th IFIP WG 2.14 European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, ESOCC 2018, held in Como, Italy, in September 2018. The 10 full and 5 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 submissions. The volume also contains one invited talk in full paper length. The main event mapped to the main research track which focused on the presentation of cutting-edge research in both the service-oriented and cloud computing areas. In conjunction, an industrial track was also held attempting to bring together academia and industry through showcasing the application of service-oriented and cloud computing research, especially in the form of case studies, in the industry.
