Novel selection policies for container-based cloud deployment models

Application deployment models have been introduced over the last decades. These models are characterized by low resource utilization efficiencies which are improved by the appearance of virtualization technologies. Currently, a more efficient utilization model called containers type virtualization has appeared. This allows different applications to share the same operating system kernel resulting in a superior application density. However, the developed infrastructures and frameworks contribute to the energy consumption and violation rates of the service level agreement. In this paper, a novel container and host selection policies for cloud deployment models are proposed. Experimental results show that the proposed policies achieve better energy and services level agreement commitment compared to the other competitors. This paper, demonstrate the existence of an association between container and host selection policies.
