Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research explores mechanisms for live migration suitable for virtual machines with big memory applications. The proposal mechanism leverages GPGPU programming techniques sophisticated in the high performance community. We implement a prototype on Xen 4.2.1 and conduct several experiments using real-world applications including PostgreSQL and Memcached. The experimental results show that migration time of our prototype is up to 16.7x shorter than that of the regular live migration on Xen.
