Challenges for the comprehensive management of cloud services in a PaaS framework
The 4CaaSt project aims at developing a PaaS framework that enables flexible definition, marketing, deployment and management of Cloud-based services and applications. The major innovations proposed by 4CaaSt are the blueprint and its lifecycle management, a one stop shop for Cloud services and a PaaS level resource management featuring elasticity. 4CaaSt also provides a portfolio of ready to use Cloud native services and Cloud-aware immigrant technologies
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
