Abstract
Dynamic resource provisioning is an important way of ensuring performance and Service Level Agreement (SLA) guarantees for applications under changing workload. However, it is always hard to meet exactly the amount of resources required at every second. Thus, how to optimize the resource provision becomes the key problem. In this paper, we propose a Reactive-Predictive Hybrid Resource Provision Method (RPHRPM), which combines reactive and predictive methods together to benefit from both. We take advantage of ARIMA model to predict the workload and get resources pre-provisioned. Meanwhile, a reactive method is also enabled to deal with the unpredictable situations. More importantly we describe a novel mechanism which will be involved when conflicts between these two methods happen. It can help to keep better performance when encounter could burst. The experiment results show that RPHRPM not only has better performance compared with other provision schemes, but also be energy-efficient.
