End-to-end elasticity control of cloud-network slices

The design of efficient elasticity control mechanisms for dynamic resource allocation is crucial to increase the efficiency of future cloud-network slice-defined systems. Current elasticity control mechanisms proposed for cloud- or network-slicing, only consider cloud- or network-type resources respectively. In this paper, we introduce the elaSticity in cLOud-neTwork Slices (SLOTS) which aims to extend the horizontal elasticity control to multi-providers scenarios in an end-to-end fashion, as well as to provide a novel vertical elasticity mechanism to deal with critical insufficiency of resources by harvesting underused resources on other slices. Finally, we present a preliminary assessment of the SLOTS prototype in a real testbed, revealing outcomes that suggest the viability of the proposal.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version

Secured Technique of AMOV and ESOV in the Clouds

The available hardware and technology for consumers and service providers today allow for advanced multimedia services over IP-based networks. Hence,the popularity of video and audio streaming services such as Video-on-Demand (VoD),The user demand for videos over the mobile devices through wireless links this wireless links capacity cannot be corporate with the traffic demand. As delay between traffic demand and link capacity, with link conditions, low ouput quality of service and sending data on this media result in buffering time . in this paper we propose a new secure mobile video streaming framework AMoV (adaptive mobile video streaming) and ESoV(efficient social video sharing) are the terms which are currently gaining the attention of variety of computer users and researchers. While enjoying the multimedia services like videos and images, the basic quandary faced by any individual is the progressive downloading or the buffering of the videos. As the researches are focusing on various technologies in said issue, very least focus is given on to the security issues present in these technologies. The basic idea behind this paper is to study and to survey the literature and to propose the security aspects in related field

Wide area network autoscaling for cloud applications

Modern cloud orchestrators like Kubernetes provide a versatile and robust way to host applications at scale. One of their key features is autoscaling, which automatically adjusts cloud resources (compute, memory, storage) in order to adapt to the demands of applications. However, the scope of cloud autoscaling is limited to the datacenter hosting the cloud and it doesn't apply uniformly to the allocation of network resources. In I/O-constrained or data-in-motion use cases this can lead to severe performance degradation for the application. For example, when the load on a cloud service increases and the Wide Area Network (WAN) connecting the datacenter to the Internet becomes saturated, the application flows experience an increase in delay and loss. In many cases this is dealt with overprovisioning network capacity, which introduces additional costs and inefficiencies. On the other hand, thanks to the concept of "Network as Code", the WAN exposes a set of APIs that can be used to dynamically allocate and de-allocate capacity on-demand. In this paper we propose extending the concept of cloud autoscaling into the network to address this limitation. This way, applications running in the cloud can communicate their networking requirements, like bandwidth or traffic profile, to a Software-Defined Networking (SDN) controller or Network as a Service (NaaS) platform. Moreover, we aim to define the concepts of vertical and horizontal autoscaling applied to networking. We present a prototype that automatically allocates bandwidth to the underlay network, according to the requirements of the applications hosted in Kubernetes. Finally, we discuss open research challenges.This work was supported by the Spanish MINECO under contract TEC2017-90034-C2-1-R (ALLIANCE), the Catalan Institution for Research and Advanced Studies (ICREA).Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft

Review on AMES-Cloud Using Preservation, Fetching and Decisive Video Streaming Over Cloud Computing

The video traffic demands are increasing over a mobile network through wireless link cannot corporate with the demand of video traffics. The increasing traffic demand is accounted by video streaming and downloading. Hence, there is a gap between link capacity and traffic demands along with the time varying condition which is result in the poor quality of video streaming service over a mobile network such as sending long buffering time and intermittent disruptions due to limited bandwidth and link condition. By leveraging cloud computing technology, we propose a new mobile video streaming framework which has two main parts : Efficient social video sharing and Adaptive mobile video streaming which built a private agent which provides video streaming service for each mobile user in the network efficiently. To demonstrate its performance we implement a prototype of AMES-Cloud framework. Thus, it is crucial to improve the video quality service of streaming while using the computing resource and networking efficiently and also provides preservation over cloud computing.

Seamless Support of Low Latency Mobile Applications with NFV-Enabled Mobile Edge-Cloud

Emerging mobile multimedia applications, such as augmented reality, have stringent latency requirements and high computational cost. To address this, mobile edge-cloud (MEC) has been proposed as an approach to bring resources closer to users. Recently, in contrast to conventional fixed cloud locations, the advent of network function virtualization (NFV) has, with some added cost due to the necessary decentralization, enhanced MEC with new flexibility in placing MEC services to any nodes capable of virtualizing their resources. In this work, we address the question on how to optimally place resources among NFV- enabled nodes to support mobile multimedia applications with low latency requirement and when to adapt the current resource placements to address workload changes. We first show that the placement optimization problem is NP-hard and propose an online dynamic resource allocation scheme that consists of an adaptive greedy heuristic algorithm and a detection mechanism to identify the time when the system will no longer be able to satisfy the applications’ delay requirement. Our scheme takes into account the effect of current existing techniques (i.e., auto- scaling and load balancing). We design and implement a realistic NFV-enabled MEC simulated framework and show through ex- tensive simulations that our proposal always manages to allocate sufficient resources on time to guarantee continuous satisfaction of the application latency requirements under changing workload while incurring up to 40% less cost in comparison to existing overprovisioning approaches
