Enhancement of Cloud-native applications with Autonomic Features

Cloud-Native Applications

CAP-Oriented Design for Cloud-Native Applications

Brewer’s conjecture, and its resulting formalization as the CAP theorem, impose serious limitations on the consistency, availability and network partitioning tolerance characteristics of distributed systems. Despite its importance however, few works explicitly consider the implications of the CAP theorem in the design of applications, especially for applications that are designed natively for t...

Special section on autonomic cloud computing: technologies, services, and applications

Welcome to the special issue of Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience (CCPE) journal. This special issue compiles a number of excellent technical contributions that significantly advance the state-of-the-art in autonomic cloud computing. Cloud computing [1, 2] is an emerging utility computing model that allows users to dynamically access, select, and configure a large pool of IT ...

Autonomic Power Aware Cloud Resources Orchestration Architecture for Web Applications

Endless resources provisioning illusion is the mainstay for cloud computing paradigm. However, the unpredictable volatility nature involving web applications workload demand would highly hinder cloud computing platforms performance, furthermore, expose cloud resources for possible devastation. Accordingly, this work proposes autonomic power aware SLA-oriented cloud resources orchestration two-t...

Self-managing cloud-native applications: Design, implementation, and experience

Running applications in the cloud efficiently requires much more than deploying software in virtual machines. Cloud applications have to be continuously managed : 1) to adjust their resources to the incoming load and 2) to face transient failures replicating and restarting components to provide resiliency on unreliable infrastructure. Continuous management monitors application and infrastructur...
