Inspired by the biological perspective of service ecosystems,
we propose to define the fitness of services in service networks. In our
work, we show how to calculate the service fitness from the provider perspective
using locally available information as a reflection of the position
of the service in the service network. For that purpose we define a fitness
corridor with upper and lower bounds that confine the service fitness
area. After establishing a fitness corridor, we show how to calibrate the
fitness calculation parameters to better reflect the service market and
how to use the calculated fitness trends for making decisions about the
provisioning of a service.
