SOS Cloud: Self-organizing Services in the Cloud

  • Conference paper
Book cover Bio-Inspired Models of Network, Information, and Computing Systems (BIONETICS 2010)

Abstract

Cloud computing is becoming an interesting alternative as a flexible and affordable on-demand environment for deploying custom applications in the form of services. This work proposes a bio-inspired, self-organizing solution to support the allocation and deallocation of virtual machines and the deployment of services on virtual machines in a cloud infrastructure. The goal is twofold: to meet the service level agreements and to minimize the number of required virtual machines.
