NetKV: Scalable, Self-Managing, Load Balancing as a Network Function
TL;DR: This work designs and implements NetKV, a scalable, self-managing, load balancer for memcached clusters, and exploits recent advances in Network Function Virtualization to provide efficient packet processing in software, producing a high performance, centralized proxy that can forward over 10.5 million requests per second.
Load Balancing of Heterogeneous Workloads in Memcached Clusters
TL;DR: An automated load balancer that can perform line-rate request redirection in a far more dynamic manner is proposed and how stream analytic techniques can be used to efficiently detect key hotspots are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minimizing Interference and Maximizing Progress for Hadoop Virtual Machines
TL;DR: This work proposes two schedulers: a virtualization layer designed to minimize interference on high priority interactive services, and one in the Hadoop framework that helps batch processing jobs meet their own performance deadlines.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Cloud-Scale Application Performance Monitoring with SDN and NFV
Guyue Liu,Timothy Wood +1 more
TL;DR: A distributed software-based network monitoring framework for cloud data centers that leverages knowledge of topology and routing information to build relationships between each tier of the application, and detect and locate performance bottlenecks by monitoring the network inside software switches.
Journal ArticleDOI
