Our proposition, presented in this paper, consists in the definition of a function estimating the response time and a method for applying it to different application workloads. The function combines the application demands for various resources (such as the CPU, the disk I/O and the network bandwidth) with the resource capabilities and availabilities on the replica servers. The main benefits of our approach include: the
simplicity
and the
transparency
, from the perspective of the clients, who don’t have to specify themselves the resource requirements, the
estimation accuracy
, by considering the application real needs and the current degree of resource usage, determined by concurrent applications and the
flexibility
, with respect to the precision with which the resource-concerned parameters are specified.
The experiments we conducted show two positive results. Firstly, our estimator provides a good approximation of the real response time obtained by measurements. Secondly, the ordering of the servers according to our estimation function values, matches with high accuracy the ordering determined by the real response times.
