Cloud applications are increasingly shifting from large monolithic services to complex graphs of loosely-coupled microservices. Despite the advantages of modularity and elasticity microservices offer, they also complicate cluster management and performance debugging, as dependencies between tiers introduce backpressure and cascading QoS violations. We present Sage, a machine learning-driven root cause analysis system for interactive cloud microservices. Sage leverages unsupervised ML models to circumvent the overhead of trace labeling, captures the impact of dependencies between microservices to determine the root cause of unpredictable performance online, and applies corrective actions to recover a cloud services QoS. In experiments on both dedicated local clusters and large clusters on Google Compute Engine we show that Sage consistently achieves over 93% accuracy in correctly identifying the root cause of QoS violations, and improves performance predictability.

The FFT of three-dimensional (3D) input data is an important computational kernel of numerical simulations and is widely used in High Performance Computing (HPC) codes running on a large number of processors. Performance of many scientific applicatio
ns such as Molecular Dynamic simulations depends on the underlying 3D parallel FFT library being used. In this paper, we present C-DACs three-dimensional Fast Fourier Transform (CROFT) library which implements three-dimensional parallel FFT using pencil decomposition. To exploit the hyperthreading capabilities of processor cores without affecting performance, CROFT is designed to use multithreading along with MPI. CROFT implementation has an innovative feature of overlapping compute and memory-I/O with MPI communication using multithreading. As opposed to other 3D FFT implementations, CROFT uses only two threads where one thread is dedicated for communication so that it can be effectively overlapped with computations. Thus, depending on the number of processes used, CROFT achieves performance improvement of about 51% to 42% as compared to FFTW3 library.
Big data applications and analytics are employed in many sectors for a variety of goals: improving customers satisfaction, predicting market behavior or improving processes in public health. These applications consist of complex software stacks that
are often run on cloud systems. Predicting execution times is important for estimating the cost of cloud services and for effectively managing the underlying resources at runtime. Machine Learning (ML), providing black box solutions to model the relationship between application performance and system configuration without requiring in-detail knowledge of the system, has become a popular way of predicting the performance of big data applications. We investigate the cost-benefits of using supervised ML models for predicting the performance of applications on Spark, one of todays most widely used frameworks for big data analysis. We compare our approach with textit{Ernest} (an ML-based technique proposed in the literature by the Spark inventors) on a range of scenarios, application workloads, and cloud system configurations. Our experiments show that Ernest can accurately estimate the performance of very regular applications, but it fails when applications exhibit more irregular patterns and/or when extrapolating on bigger data set sizes. Results show that our models match or exceed Ernests performance, sometimes enabling us to reduce the prediction error from 126-187% to only 5-19%.
Current cloud services are moving away from monolithic designs and towards graphs of many loosely-coupled, single-concerned microservices. Microservices have several advantages, including speeding up development and deployment, allowing specializatio
n of the software infrastructure, and helping with debugging and error isolation. At the same time they introduce several hardware and software challenges. Given that most of the performance and efficiency implications of microservices happen at scales larger than what is available outside production deployments, studying such effects requires designing the right simulation infrastructures. We present uqSim, a scalable and validated queueing network simulator designed specifically for interactive microservices. uqSim provides detailed intra- and inter-microservice models that allow it to faithfully reproduce the behavior of complex, many-tier applications. uqSim is also modular, allowing reuse of individual models across microservices and end-to-end applications. We have validated uqSim both against simple and more complex microservices graphs, and have shown that it accurately captures performance in terms of throughput and tail latency. Finally, we use uqSim to model the tail at scale effects of request fanout, and the performance impact of power management in latency-sensitive microservices.
As a highly scalable permissioned blockchain platform, Hyperledger Fabric supports a wide range of industry use cases ranging from governance to finance. In this paper, we propose a model to analyze the performance of a Hyperledgerbased system by usi
ng Generalised Stochastic Petri Nets (GSPN). This model decomposes a transaction flow into multiple phases and provides a simulation-based approach to obtain the system latency and throughput with a specific arrival rate. Based on this model, we analyze the impact of different configurations of ordering service on system performance to find out the bottleneck. Moreover, a mathematical configuration selection approach is proposed to determine the best configuration which can maximize the system throughput. Finally, extensive experiments are performed on a running system to validate the proposed model and approaches.
The pursuit of power-efficiency is popularizing asymmetric multicore processors (AMP) such as ARM big.LITTLE, Apple M1 and recent Intel Alder Lake with big and little cores. However, we find that existing scalable locks fail to scale on AMP and cause
collapses in either throughput or latency, or both, because their implicit assumption of symmetric cores no longer holds. To address this issue, we propose the first asymmetry-aware scalable lock named LibASL. LibASL provides a new lock ordering guided by applications latency requirements, which allows big cores to reorder with little cores for higher throughput under the condition of preserving applications latency requirements. Using LibASL only requires linking the applications with it and, if latency-critical, inserting few lines of code to annotate the coarse-grained latency requirement. We evaluate LibASL in various benchmarks including five popular databases on Apple M1. Evaluation results show that LibASL can improve the throughput by up to 5 times while precisely preserving the tail latency designated by applications.
