A Queuing based Network I/O Scheduling with QoS Guarantee for Virtual Machine
Xiaodong Liu, Zhengying Wen, Miao Wang · International Journal of Future Generation Communication and Networking · 2015
Since multiple VMs share the same network interface card (NIC).The I/O operation of one virtual machine is affected by others.The quality of service (QoS) of the network is hardly guaranteed.This paper presents a queuing based I/O scheduling for big data processing via the cloud, an efficient scheduling strategy with quality of service (QoS) guarantee.Our proposed scheme uses a queuing system to control the I/O bandwidth and provide QoS guarantee for each application.The proposed techniques are implemented on the xen virtual machine monitor (VMM) and evaluated with micro-benchmarks on Linux operation system.
