Abstract:Cloud-based services revolutionize how applications are designed and provisioned in more and more application domains. Operating a cloud application, however, requires careful choices of configuration settings so that the quality of service is acceptable at all times, while cloud costs remain reasonable. We propose an analytical queuing model for cloud resource provisioning that provides an approximation on end-to-end application latency and on cloud resource usage, and we evaluate its performance. We pick an … Show more
