Abstract:Bare-metal cloud provides a dedicated set of physical machines (PMs) and enables both PMs and virtual machines (VMs) on the PMs to be scaled in/out dynamically. However, to increase efficiency of the resources and reduce violations of service level agreements (SLAs), resources need to be scaled quickly to adapt to workload changes, which results in high reconfiguration overhead, especially for the PMs. This paper proposes a hierarchical and frequency-aware auto-scaling based on Model Predictive Control, which … Show more
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.
