Informed Provisioning of Storage for Cluster Applications
نویسنده
چکیده
Today, application providers can choose from a range of storage choices to provision their infrastructure for cluster-based applications . Each storage technology presents a different point in a complex tradeoff space of cost, capacity, and performance . To help application providers choose from these alternatives, we developed scc [1] to automate the selection of cluster storage configurations based on a formal specification of applications, hardware, and workloads . Our tool allows administrators to understand how high-level workload characteristics influence the cluster architecture, and in applying scc to several representative deployment scenarios, we show how it can enable 2x–4 .5x cost savings when compared to traditional scale-out techniques .

scc: cluster storage provisioning informed by application characteristics and SLAs
Storage for cluster applications is typically provisioned based on rough, qualitative characterizations of applications. Moreover, configurations are often selected based on rules of thumb and are usually homogeneous across a deployment; to handle increased load, the application is simply scaled out across additional machines and storage of the same type. As deployments grow larger and storage ...
متن کاملThe Design and Implementation of a Virtual Cluster Management System
Abstract. To fully utilize resources in computer center, virtualization techniques are getting popular and several systems are proposed for this purpose. However, they just provide set of virtualized nodes, not the ’virtual clusters’; i.e., they are not able to install and configure middlewares and tools that makes ’set of nodes’ into ’cluster’. Another problem is that they just virtualize node...
متن کاملEfficient Resource Mapping by means of Storage Tiering using RAID in Cloud
Recent Technologies that reach end users are those which provide services for all their needs. Cloud computing is a technology where service is provided for all end user’s needs and requests. As we move deeper into an era in which data usage and the storage capacity are increased double year by year, some of the major companies are mainly concentrated on demand storage option like cloud storage...
متن کاملA Self-Organizing Storage Cluster for Decentralized and Reliable File Storage*
This paper describes the design and implementation of a decentralized storage cluster for file storage so as to provide self-organizing, available, scalable, and consistent data management capability for cluster platform. The self-organizing capability of CHT grants our storage cluster the potential to handle both failure and online provisioning gracefully. We use soft-state to manage membershi...
متن کاملModel-Based Resource Provisioning in a Web Service Utility
Internet service utilities host multiple server applications on a shared server cluster. A key challenge for these systems is to provision shared resources on demand to meet service quality targets at least cost. This paper presents a new approach to utility resource management focusing on coordinated provisioning of memory and storage resources. Our approach is model-based: it incorporates int...
