The AIM of the ITI Conference is to promote the communication and interaction among researchers involved in the development and application of methods and techniques within the broad framework of information and communication technology. ITI seeks papers that will advance the state of the art in the field, and help foster increased interaction among academic, engineering and business communities.
This paper focuses on SaaS-type Hybrid Cloud architecture, where computing resources in Private Cloud are limited in quantity. In this case, the workload balancing problem must be solved, since some projects are lost because of under provisioning of Private Cloud resources, as well as costly resources are wasted during nonpeak periods. The workload balancing algorithm for Hybrid Cloud is proposed, assuming that a certain part of incoming projects in the workload can be postponed for a short time period. This algorithm is adapted for a rendering service to ensure its Cloud-based delivery. The cash flow model is built to determine the adequate quantity of computing resources in Private Cloud if the demand of resources is variable and has some pattern in time. The implementation of a proposed strategy for workload balancing is practically worth, since the same flow of incoming projects is serviced with a smaller amount of own computing resources, thus reducing their downtime. For this purpose, an experimental study of the expected effect is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
