 Virtual Machine Technology

  • In virtual machine technology, the hypervisor is an important component. A hypervisor is a specialized software that perfectly emulates the CPU, memory, hard drive, network, and other hardware resources of a PC client or server, allowing virtual computers to share the resources. The hypervisor may replicate various separated virtual hardware platforms, allowing virtual machines to run Linux and Windows Server operating systems on the same underlying physical host. Virtualization saves money by eliminating the requirement for actual hardware devices. 
  • Virtual machines use hardware more effectively, which decreases hardware quantities and related maintenance costs, as well as power and cooling consumption. They also make administration easier since virtual hardware never fails. Virtual environments can help administrators ease backups, disaster recovery, new installations, and fundamental system management duties.
  • Virtual machines do not require the use of specialized, hypervisor-specific hardware. Virtualization does require more bandwidth, storage, and processing capacity than a traditional server or desktop if the physical hardware is going to host multiple running virtual machines. To improve hardware resource use, VMs may be readily moved, cloned, and transferred across host servers. Because VMs on a physical host might consume uneven amounts of resources - one may occupy all of the available physical storage while another stores very little - IT professionals must balance VMs with available resources.
  • The usage of virtual machines brings many critical management issues, many of which may be addressed through basic systems administration best practices and VM management tools. Consolidation has various dangers, such as overtaxing resources or even suffering outages on several VMs owing to a single physical hardware failure. While the cost savings grow as more virtual machines use the same hardware platform the danger increases. It is conceivable to run hundreds of virtual machines on the same hardware, but if the hardware platform breaks, dozens or hundreds of virtual machines may be lost.
  • Although some other companies also provide virtual machine software, two major vendors dominate the market: VMware and Microsoft. VMware offers a mature product range that has been used in the IT industry for many years. Despite being a latecomer to virtualization, Microsoft is making significant progress. Many IT departments run non-critical apps on Microsoft virtual machines because the virtualization environment is less expensive than VMware's solutions. Several open-source alternatives are fast emerging, with new features and better stability, but lack the maturity and support choices of these vendor services. System virtual machines serve as a substitute for physical machines. They provide the capability required to run whole operating systems. A hypervisor employs native execution to share and control hardware, allowing several environments to operate on the same physical computer while being isolated from one

Suppose that a data warehouse for Big-University consists of the following four dimensions: student, course, semester, and instructor, and two measures count and avg_grade. When at the lowest conceptual level (e.g., for a given student, course, semester, and instructor combination), the avg_grade measure stores the actual course grade of the student. At higher conceptual levels, avg_grade stores the average grade for the given combination. a) Draw a snowflake schema diagram for the data warehouse. b) Starting with the base cuboid [student, course, semester, instructor], what specific OLAP operations (e.g., roll-up from semester to year) should one perform in order to list the average grade of CS courses for each BigUniversity student. c) If each dimension has five levels (including all), such as “student < major < status < university < all”, how many cuboids will this cube contain (including the base and apex cuboids)?

a) A Snowflake Shema is shown in figure below: b) The specific OLAP operations to be performed: 1. Roll-up on course from course_id to department. 2. Roll-up on a student from student_id to university. 3. Dice on course, student with department ="CS" and university = "biguniversity" 4. Drill-down on a student from the university to student_name. c) N = 4 dimensions The cube will contain 54 = 625 cuboids.

Describe how cloud computing technology can be applied to support remote ECG monitoring.

  Healthcare: ECG (Electrocardiogram) Analysis in cloud computing Healthcare is a field, subject, sector, or territory in which information technology has several uses. These apps are being used to aid businesses in supporting scientists in developing disease prevention solutions. Cloud computing has emerged as an appealing alternative for constructing health monitoring systems as a result of the development of the Internet or to put it another way, as a result of the availability of the internet. The ECG machine, for example, is a health monitoring device that measures the human body's heartbeat and prints the results on graph paper. The electrocardiogram (ECG) measures the electrical activity of the heart's Cardium. A waveform is created as a result of this action, which is repeated throughout time and symbolizes the heartbeat.  The analysis of the shape is used to identify arrhythmias, and it is the most common way of detecting heart diseases. Here the meaning of arrhythmias

Explain market-Oriented Cloud computing architecture.

  Market Oriented Cloud Computing (Mocc) As customers rely on Cloud providers to cover all of their computing needs, they will expect certain Qe from their providers to fulfill their objectives and continue their operations. Cloud providers must examine and satisfy the various QoS standards of each unique consumer as stipulated in unique SLAs. To do this, cloud providers cannot continue to install traditional system-centric resource management architectures that do not give incentives for them to share their resources while still treating all service requests as equal insignificance. Instead, market-oriented resource management is required to maintain the supply and demand for Cloud resources at market equilibrium, provide feedback in the form of economic incentives for both Cloud consumers and providers, and promote QoS-based resource allocation mechanisms that differentiate service requests based on their utility. The diagram depicts a high-level architecture for enabling market-orie
