Profiling and Modeling Resource Usage of Virtualized Applications

Category: Servers and Server OS, IT Management

Overview Next Generation Data Centers (NGDC) are transforming labor-intensive, hard-coded systems into shared, virtualized, automated, and fully managed adaptive infrastructures. Virtualization technologies promise great opportunities for reducing energy and hardware costs through server consolidation. Moreover, virtualization can optimize resource sharing among applications hosted in different virtual machines to better meet their resource needs. However, to safely transition an application running natively on real hardware to a virtualized environment, one needs to estimate the additional resource requirements incurred by virtualization overheads. This work designs a general approach for estimating the resource requirements of applications when they are transferred to a virtual environment.
