Adaptive Energy-aware Scheduling of Dynamic Event Analytics across Edge and Cloud Resources
The growing deployment of sensors as part of Internet of Things (IoT) is
generating thousands of event streams. Complex Event Processing (CEP) queries
offer a useful paradigm for rapid decision-making over such data sources. While
often centralized in the Cloud, the deployment of capable edge devices on the
field motivates the need for cooperative event analytics that span Edge and
Cloud computing. Here, we identify a novel problem of query placement on edge
and Cloud resources for dynamically arriving and departing analytic dataflows.
We define this as an optimization problem to minimize the total makespan for
all event analytics, while meeting energy and compute constraints of the
resources. We propose 4 adaptive heuristics and 3 rebalancing strategies for
such dynamic dataflows, and validate them using detailed simulations for 100 -
1000 edge devices and VMs. The results show that our heuristics offer
O(seconds) planning time, give a valid and high quality solution in all cases,
and reduce the number of query migrations. Furthermore, rebalance strategies
when applied in these heuristics have significantly reduced the makespan by
around 20 - 25%.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figure
