Abstract:Cloud applications use more than just server resources, they also require networking resources. We propose a new technique to model network bandwidth demand of networked cloud applications. Our technique, Gridiron, augments VM workload traces from Azure cloud with network bandwidth requirements. The key to the Gridiron technique is to derive inter-VM network bandwidth requirements using Amdahl's second law. As a case study, we use Gridiron to generate realistic traces with network bandwidth demands for a distr… Show more
