Abstract
Description
Cloud computing has attracted more and more attention and has been used in more and more applications in many different fields. As we know, cloud computing delivers computing as a service. Its adoption widely depends upon the reliability of its systems. However, self-monitoring and adaptation are overlooked by most system designers and architects. Extant system accounting functionalities mainly focus on recent error causes, which is insufficient for long-term history analysis and event prediction. Our approach not only analyzes system events from both service consumers and providers, but also provides a layered composable system accounting framework in cloud computing environments. By self-monitoring, history analysis, event prediction and recovery, a new refined quality of reliability (QoR) for cloud computing is essentially provided. An implementation of this framework in an education services environment confirms the advantages over extant system accounting systems.
