Automatically tuning middleware in a mobilefirst platform running in a docker container infrastructure

摘要

An approach is provided for tuning middleware. Performance-related settings are loaded. Performance data of the middleware of a MobileFirst Platform (MFP) running in a docker container infrastructure is received. The performance data is collected by agents installed in container groups. Based on the performance data, a performance issue in one of the container groups is identified and a server included in the one container group is identified as a source of the performance issue. Recommendations are generated for tuning the middleware by modifying one or more of the performance-related settings. While the middleware is running in the docker container infrastructure, one of the recommendations is applied to modify one of the performance-related settings which dynamically tunes the middleware, thereby resolving the performance issue.
