CS 518 Capacity Planning for Web Services
|
|
Web services rely on large-scale systems that consist of thousands of computers, networks, software components, and users. Large scale systems are inherently complex. The randomness associated with the way users request Web services compounds the problem of managing and planning the capacity of those services. The Web has special features that make its performance problems unique and demand novel approaches to dealing with them. This course presents a sound and practical approach to addressing these challenges using models based on probability fundamentals and the theory of queueing networks. In this way, it provides a quantitative approach to analyzing Web services, which lends, itself to the development of performance and availability predictive models for managing and planning the capacity of Web services.
