Coordinating the Design and Management of Heterogeneous Datacenter Resources

Heterogeneous Memory Management in Datacenter

Heterogeneous memory management combined with server virtualization in data-centers is expected to increase the software and OS management complexity. State-of-the-art solutions for both virtualized and non-virtualized systems rely exclusively on the expensive page migrations techniques, limiting the benefits from heterogeneity. To address this, we design HeteroOS, a novel application-transpare...

SLA-based virtual machine management for heterogeneous workloads in a cloud datacenter

Efficient provisioning of resources is a challenging problem in cloud computing environments due to its dynamic nature and the need for supporting heterogeneous applications. Even though VM (Virtual Machine) technology allows several workloads to run concurrently and to use a shared infrastructure, still it does not guarantee application performance. Thus, currently cloud datacenter providers e...

Reducing the Cost of Operating a Datacenter Network

Datacenters are a signi cant capital expense formany enterprises. Yet, they aredifficult tomanage and are hard to design andmaintain. e initial design of a datacenter network tends to follow vendor guidelines, but subsequent upgrades and expansions to it are mostly ad hoc, with equipment being upgraded piecemeal a er its amortization period runs out and equipment acquisition is tied to budget c...

SLA-Based Resource Provisioning for Heterogeneous Workloads in a Virtualized Cloud Datacenter

Efficient provisioning of resources is a challenging problem in cloud computing environments due to its dynamic nature and the need for supporting heterogeneous applications with different performance requirements. Currently, cloud datacenter providers either do not offer any performance guarantee or prefer static VM allocation over dynamic, which lead to inefficient utilization of resources. E...
