Envisage: Simulating the Cost of Cloud Deployment
Make sure to catch the Envisage demo if you are going to Cloudscape 2016 in Brussels:
- 8 March 15:45-16:15 Mobile Screen S.6 (live)
- 9 March 11:45-12:15 Mobile Screen S.7 (live)
When system design does not take deployment architectures and costs into account, the savings of cloud computing are difficult to realize. The ENVISAGE project develops formal behavioral models that integrate data modeling, control flow, resource usage, and static and dynamic deployment and scaling decisions. Static analysis methods help with establishing confidence and calculating worst-case cost; simulation and visualization tools enable gaining insights into whole-system behavior already during the modeling and design phase.
Envisage @ ISoLA 2014
Envisage organized a track at ISoLA 2014 on Engineering Virtualized Services. The event took place in the Hotel Imperial, Corfu, Greece on Wednesday, October 8, 2014.
Abstract
Virtualized computing services, such as cloud services, create new opportunities, but also pose new challenges for users and providers alike. Over-provisioning of resources and compensative penalties for breaching an SLA are among the only too real downsides of virtualization. At the same time, formal models of software services and advanced static analysis tools promise vast improvements of productivity and cost effectiveness in cloud computing. This track explores the state-of-art in modeling of services deployed on the cloud and in the formalization as well as verification of SLAs.
