Identification of critical web services and their dynamic optimal relocation

摘要

A web service executing on a web server is monitored by detecting metadata generated for various performance characteristics of the web service. A relocation policy is consulted in response to detecting the performance characteristics exceeding a first predetermined threshold. The relocation policy specifies a target web server as a new location for the web, and instructions for relocating the web service to the target web server if the performance characteristics exceeding a second predetermined threshold. The web service is relocated to the target web server based on the relocation policy and without human intervention.
