Self-adaptive and self-configured CPU resource provisioning for virtualized servers using Kalman filters
Evangelia Kalyvianaki, Themistoklis Charalambous, Steven J. Hand · 2009
Data center virtualization allows cost-effective server consolidation which can increase system throughput and reduce power consumption. Resource management of virtualized servers is an important and challenging task, especially when dealing with fluctuating workloads and complex multi-tier server applications. Recent results in control theory-based resource management have shown the potential benefits of adjusting allocations to match changing workloads.
