Abstract
Abstract —Today, Infrastructure-as-a-service providers are trying to minimize the cost of data center operations, while maintaining the Service Level Agreements. This can be achieved by one of the advanced state-of-the-art services of virtualization - the live migration capability. Live migration is defined as the process of transferring an active virtual machine from one physical machine to another without any disconnection. This is achieved by transferring all of the encapsulated states of the VM from one host to another. It has become an essential tool for efficient management of resources in a data center by enabling server consolidation and load balancing. There are two classical migration techniques, namely - pre-copy and post-copy, which employ different memory transfer mechanism during the offloading of a VM. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid live migration technique by combining the existing pre-copy and post-copy approaches. Compare to its counterparts, our hybrid technique is a fast, efficient and a reliable migration technique.
MRT generates memory restoration templates from the learned sequence of pages that incur page faults during a warm start and uses them to bulk-restore pages using Intel's In-Memory Analytics Accelerator (IAA), avoiding costly on-demand faults.

Violet combines RISC-V's virtualization features with software-based emulation, enabling the execution of unmodified M-mode RTOSs, and was implemented on the SiFive HiFive Premier P550 hardware, demonstrating that existing RTOSs can run on Violet's VM and that coexistence with GPOSs like Linux is also possible.

With the widespread adoption of virtualization, ensuring predictable I/O latency in consolidated virtualized environments has become crucial. Predictable virtual I/O is essential for enhancing system responsiveness and maintaining target latency satisfaction when multiple VMs on the same host compete for shared storage...

Dedicated VMs provide near bare-metal performance through CPU pinning, interrupt passthrough, and idle passthrough. In conventional deployments, however, these optimizations lock physical cores to individual VMs and prevent CPU sharing. In one of the world's largest cloud platforms, 74% of Dedicated VMs average below 1...

Xtream designs a mechanism for collaborative cold and hot data migration to ensure timely responses to VM I/O requests and identifies a macro-level locality pattern, characterized as multi-stripe disk access pattern, and develops a stripe-oriented prefetching algorithm in Xtream to improve I/O hit rate.

Processes, containers, and virtual machines (VMs) offer different trade-offs between performance, isolation, and resource sharing. Yet, they represent just three points in a vast design space. Developers repeatedly introduce ad-hoc isolation mechanisms to tune these trade-offs for specific deployments, but there is no...
