SLA-Oriented Resource Provisioning for Cloud Computing: Challenges, Architecture, and Solutions
Cloud computing systems promise to offer subscription-oriented,
enterprise-quality computing services to users worldwide. With the increased
demand for delivering services to a large number of users, they need to offer
differentiated services to users and meet their quality expectations. Existing
resource management systems in data centers are yet to support Service Level
Agreement (SLA)-oriented resource allocation, and thus need to be enhanced to
realize cloud computing and utility computing. In addition, no work has been
done to collectively incorporate customer-driven service management,
computational risk management, and autonomic resource management into a
market-based resource management system to target the rapidly changing
enterprise requirements of Cloud computing. This paper presents vision,
challenges, and architectural elements of SLA-oriented resource management. The
proposed architecture supports integration of marketbased provisioning policies
and virtualisation technologies for flexible allocation of resources to
applications. The performance results obtained from our working prototype
system shows the feasibility and effectiveness of SLA-based resource
provisioning in Clouds.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures, Conference Keynote Paper: 2011 IEEE

Model-driven Scheduling for Distributed Stream Processing Systems
Distributed Stream Processing frameworks are being commonly used with the
evolution of Internet of Things(IoT). These frameworks are designed to adapt to
the dynamic input message rate by scaling in/out.Apache Storm, originally
developed by Twitter is a widely used stream processing engine while others
includes Flink, Spark streaming. For running the streaming applications
successfully there is need to know the optimal resource requirement, as
over-estimation of resources adds extra cost.So we need some strategy to come
up with the optimal resource requirement for a given streaming application. In
this article, we propose a model-driven approach for scheduling streaming
applications that effectively utilizes a priori knowledge of the applications
to provide predictable scheduling behavior. Specifically, we use application
performance models to offer reliable estimates of the resource allocation
required. Further, this intuition also drives resource mapping, and helps
narrow the estimated and actual dataflow performance and resource utilization.
Together, this model-driven scheduling approach gives a predictable application
performance and resource utilization behavior for executing a given DSPS
application at a target input stream rate on distributed resources.Comment: 54 page
