Elastic load balancing for dynamic virtual machine reconfiguration based on vertical and horizontal scaling
نویسندگان
چکیده
Today, cloud computing applications are rapidly constructed by services belonging to different cloud providers and service owners. This work presents the inter-cloud elasticity framework, which focuses on cloud load balancing based on dynamic virtual machine reconfiguration when variations on load or on user requests volume are observed. We design a dynamic reconfiguration system, called inter-cloud load balancer (ICLB), that allows scaling up or down the virtual resources (thus providing automatized elasticity), by eliminating service downtimes and communication failures. It includes an inter-cloud load balancer for distributing incoming user HTTP traffic across multiple instances of inter-cloud applications and services and we perform dynamic reconfiguration of resources according to the real time requirements. The experimental analysis includes different topologies by showing how real-time traffic variation (using real world workloads) affects resource utilization and by achieving better resource usage in inter-cloud.

متن کاملA mathematical model for the design of distributed layout by considering production planning and system reconfiguration over multiple time periods
In this paper, we develop a new mathematical model that integrates layout configuration and production planning in the design of dynamic distributed layouts. The model incorporates a number of important manufacturing attributes such as demand fluctuation, system reconfiguration, lot splitting, work load balancing, alternative routings, machine capability and tooling requirements. In addition, t...
متن کاملVertical Scaling Capability of OpenStack - Survey of Guest Operating Systems, Hypervisors, and the Cloud Management Platform
With the emergence of cloud computing, resources can be dynamically scaled. A common scaling approach is the addition and removal of virtual machines, known as horizontal scaling. Horizontal scaling can take several minutes but erratic and sudden changes in demand take place within seconds. Therefore, vertical scaling has been introduced, changing the resources of an existing virtual machine du...
متن کاملElastic Virtual Machine for Fine-grained Cloud Resource Provisioning
Elasticity is one of the distinguishing characteristics associated with Cloud computing emergence. It enables cloud resources to auto-scale to cope with workload demand. Multi-instances horizontal scaling is the common scalability architecture in Cloud; however, its current implementation is coarse-grained, while it considers Virtual Machine (VM) as a scaling unit, this implies additional scali...
متن کاملPower-performance tradeoffs in data center servers: DVFS, CPU pinning, horizontal, and vertical scaling
Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS), CPU pinning, horizontal, and vertical scaling, are four techniques that have been proposed as actuators to control the performance and energy consumption on data center servers. This work investigates the utility of these four actuators, and quantifies the power-performance tradeoffs associated with them. Using replicas of the German Wikipedia runni...
