Autonomic deployment decision making for big data analytics applications in the cloud
(2017) In Soft Computing: A Fusion of Foundations, Methodologies and Applications 21(16). p.4501-4512- Abstract
When changes happen to big data analytics (BDA) applications in the Cloud at runtime, the affected BDA applications have to be re-deployed to accommodate the changes. Deciding the most suitable deployment is critical and complicated. Although there have been various research studies working on BDA application management, autonomic deployment decision making is still an open research issue. This paper proposes a deployment decision making solution for BDA applications in the Cloud: first, we propose a novel language, named DepPolicy, to specify runtime deployment information as policies; second, we model the deployment decision making problem as a constraint programming problem using MiniZinc; third, we propose a decision making...

This paper proposes a deployment decision making solution for BDA applications in the Cloud: first, we propose a novel language, named DepPolicy, to specify runtime deployment information as policies; second, we model the deployment decision making problem as a constraint programming problem using MiniZinc; third, we propose a decision making algorithm that can make different deployment decisions for different jobs in a way that maximises overall utility while satisfying all given constraints (e.g., cost limit); fourth, we design and implement a decision making middleware, named DepWare, for BDA application deployment in the Cloud. The proposed solution is evaluated in terms of feasibility, functional correctness, performance and scalability.
