Real-time data processing with Storm
Real-time data processing Many use cases across various domains require real-time data processing for faster decision making: credit card fraud analytics, network fault prediction from sensor data, security threat prediction, etc. Data Stream Processing or stream computing is the new computing paradigm for processing streaming data in real-time without storing them in secondary storage. Twitter’s […]
Profiling the Ceilometer API to Identify Performance Bottlenecks
We are using ceilometer to collect data energy from our servers. As noted previously we were having some performance issues and we needed to investigate further. In this blog post we will cover our approach to performing profiling on ceilometer API to determine where the problems arose. Of course, the first step was to take […]
Most suitable language for SDK development for SDN?
We at ICCLab are embarking upon an exciting project to make a software development kit to enable SDN researchers develop exciting products and innovative protocols overcoming the challenges and drawbacks of decades old network protocols in use today. We had a huge debate internally to decide which programming language to use for this development. Since, […]
Cloud Incident Management
Overview Cloud Incident Management is a new research direction which focuses on conducting forensic investigations, electronic discovery (eDiscovery), and other critical aspects of security that are inherent in a multi-tenant, highly virtualized environment, along with any standards that need to be followed. An Incident is an event which occurs outside the standard operation plan and […]
Understanding how server energy consumption varies with CPU-bound workload
In some of our project work, we need to understand the energy consumption of our servers. One basic test we performed was to determine how server power consumption increases with load. In this blog post we document the results we obtained. Schlagwörter: cpu bound workload, server energy consumption
