Abstract

This paper presents a cloud approach for low cost capacity planning evaluations. To perform these evaluations we have to specify and measure the workload on the target system to discover issues and make the necessary adjustments. However, due to high costs, these evaluations are usually done using simulations, which does not consider stochastic effects. We propose to use a tool named PEESOS, a generic and flexible approach to apply real workloads and measure used resources on these real systems. As a proof of concept, our case study use a real ticket sales service to evaluate the influence of scalability in the resource provisioning to show how PEESOS can lower the cost of such real evaluations. The results show the efficiency and savings that we can obtain using PEESOS for large-scale capacity planning evaluations before the real services are deployed. This approach can avoid several problems that real services faces when they launch. (AU)
