Abstract

The optimization problem addressed by this paper involves the allocation of resources in a private cloud such that cost to the provider is minimized (through the maximization of resource sharing) while attempting to meet all client application requirements (as specified in the SLAs). At the heart of any optimization based resource allocation algorithm, there are two models: one that relates the application level quality of service to the given set of resources and one that maps a given service level and resource consumption to profit metrics. In this paper we investigate the optimization loop in which each application’s performance model is dynamically updated at runtime to adapt to the changes in the system. These changes could be perturbations in the environment that had not been included in the model. Through experimentation we show that using these tracking models in the optimization loop will result in a more accurate optimization and thus result in the generation of greater profit.
