Abstract
Monitoring is a relevant issues above all for customers of Public Clouds. In fact they need to detect under-utilization, overload conditions, and check SLA fulfillment. However they cannot trust twice the provider for the SLA and for its checking, and have limited knowledge about the infrastructure to understand the reasons of real bottlenecks. They can only access the virtual resources. In this Chapter we provide a comparison of two different approaches to the monitoring of Clouds Infrastructure, developed within the research activities of two European FP7-ICT projects. The first one has been developed by the VISION Cloud project and it is based on asynchronous message delivery mechanism for the collection, propagation and delivery of all events to their respective recipients. The second one is based on , the mobile agents framework of the mOSAIC project, for provisioning and managements of heterogeneous Cloud resources.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
