This book provides an overview of the problems involved in
engineering scalable, elastic, and cost-efficient cloud computing
services and describes the CloudScale method - a description of
rescuing tools and the required steps to exploit these tools. It
allows readers to analyze the scalability problem in detail and
identify scalability anti-patterns and bottlenecks within an
application. With the CloudScale method, software architects can
analyze both existing and planned IT services. The method allows
readers to answer questions like: * With an increasing number of
users, can my service still deliver acceptable quality of service?
* What if each user uses the service more intensively? Can my
service still handle it with acceptable quality of service? * What
if the number of users suddenly increases? Will my service still be
able to handle it? * Will my service be cost-efficient? First the
book addresses the importance of scalability, elasticity, and
cost-efficiency as vital quality-related attributes of modern cloud
computing applications. Following a brief overview of CloudScale,
cloud computing applications are then introduced in detail and the
aspects that need to be captured in models of such applications are
discussed. In CloudScale, these aspects are captured in instances
of the ScaleDL modeling language. Subsequently, the book describes
the forward engineering part of CloudScale, which is applicable
when developing a new service. It also outlines the reverse and
reengineering parts of CloudScale, which come into play when an
existing (legacy) service is modified. Lastly, the book directly
focuses on the needs of both business-oriented and technical
managers by providing guidance on all steps of implementing
CloudScale as well as making decisions during that implementation.
The demonstrators and reference projects described serve as a
valuable starting point for learning from experience. This book is
meant for all stakeholders interested in delivering scalable,
elastic, and cost-efficient cloud computing applications: managers,
product owners, software architects and developers alike. With this
book, they can both see the overall picture as well as dive into
issues of particular interest.
