Predictable Scaling Behaviour in the Data Centre with Multiple Application Servers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Load sharing in the data centre is an essential strategy for meeting service levels in high volume and high availability services. We investigate the accuracy with which simple, classical queueing models can predict the scaling behaviour of server capacity in an environment of both homogeneous and inhomogeneous hardware, using known traffic patterns as input. We measure the performance of three commonly used load sharing algorithms and show that the simple queueing models underestimate performance needs significantly at high load. Load sharing based on real-time network monitoring performs worst on average. The work has implications for the accuracy of Quality of Service estimates.

Performance Driven Database Design for Scalable Web Applications
Scaling up web applications requires distribution of load across multiple application servers and across multiple database servers. Distributing load across multiple application servers is fairly straightforward; however distributing load (select and UDI queries) across multiple database servers is more complex because of the synchronization requirements for multiple copies of the data. Differe...

Introduction: The advent of dual-modality PET/CT scanners has revolutionized clinical oncology by improving lesion localization and facilitating treatment planning for radiotherapy. In addition, the use of CT images for CT-based attenuation correction (CTAC) decreases the overall scanning time and creates a noise-free attenuation map (6map). CTAC methods include scaling, s...
متن کاملScaling Out Acid Applications with Operation Partitioning
OLTP applications with high workloads that cannot be served by a single server need to scale out to multiple servers. Typically, scaling out entails assigning a different partition of the application state to each server. But data partitioning is at odds with preserving the strong consistency guarantees of ACID transactions, a fundamental building block of many OLTP applications. The more we sc...

This study aimed to examine the impact of parenting mediation strategies on family relationships and social media use among Saudi adolescents. To achieve the aim, a quantitative research design was used, involving questionnaires with data collected from 393 Saudi students aged 13-18 years. Pearson correlation and hierarchical multiple regression analyses were performed. The key findings of this...

In MTSC, correlated sources are separately encoded but jointly decoded. With appropriate modeling of all kinds of correlation among three non binary correlated sources, in this paper we propose a method for performing IMTSC among three sources. Due to the possibility of providing an approach for practical code design for more than two correlated sources in IMTSC/CEO setup, the multicast system ...
