Resource utilization through autoscaling in cloud environment
Gopesh R. Banker, Gayatri Pandi · IJSRD : international journal for scientific research and development · 2015
In recent years, cloud computing has evolved as a much efficient, proactive and widely accepted technology. Mostly virtualization techniques are used to serve the requests from the clients. A major issue arising for all cloud users is to handle the dynamic number of requests from time to time and using efficiently all the existing resources. This problem is overcome by the autoscaling mechanism of Virtual Machines. Basic autoscaling mechanisms are naive as they only check for individual VM healths. The outcome of this research comes up with an efficient autoscaling mechanism that performs an efficient scaling in a cloud environment. The results of the research can be used in real time cloud setup so as to achieve high efficiency and serve more number of requests than the other pre-existing schemes. The results are simulated in an AWS environment which shows how better this scheme is then the currently existing ones.
