INDICES: Exploiting Edge Resources for Performance-aware Cloud-hosted Services
Abstract
Despite the known benefits of hosting cloud-based services, the longer and often unpredictable end-to-end network latencies between the end user and the cloud can be detrimental to the response time requirements of the interactive cloud-hosted applications. Existing efforts that exploit edge/fog technology to migrate services closer to clients in order to improve response times do not fully resolve this problem as they do not focus on performance and interference issues at the migrated locations. This paper proposes INDICES framework that addresses these limitations by providing a novel solution that determines when and to which MDC a service should be migrated to and thus provides the desired performance. Empirical results validating our claims are presented using a setup comprising a centralized cloud and MDCs composed of heterogeneous hardware.
