A Performance Isolation Mechanism Based on Fuzzy Technique for Web Server Load Balancing

摘要

In this study, a performance isolation mechanism based on a fuzzy control technique is developed in such a way that ambiguous situations caused when estimating the workload of cluster-based web servers, client request rates, and dynamic request rates can be represented effectively. The proposed mechanism involving a fuzzy-based technique is compared with a non-fuzzy technique in terms of the response time in the 95th percentile. Experiments showed that the proposed technique improves the performance of web servers that provide differentiated services.
