  1. Web Server QoS Management by Adaptive Content Delivery Tarek F. Abdelzaher and Nina Bhatti Quality of Service, 1999. IWQoS '99. 1999 Seventh International Workshop on , 1999 September 26 2000 Chul Lee

  2. Introduction (1/2) • Today’s web servers • Offer poor performance under overload • Have no means for prioritizing requests • Have no mechanism for pre-allocating end-system capacity to a particular site or hosted service

  3. Introduction (2/2) • Overload protection • Load balancing and admission control • Multicast • Content adaptation • The compression of Images(65% of the total bytes, e-commerce site) • Reducing # of embedded objects per page • Reducing local links • Multiple content trees • /full_contentand/degraded_content • Static and dynamic

  4. QoS Adaptation Architecture (1/4) • Content adaptation layer • Decides on “right” content tree • Prevent underutilization or overload • Server load monitoring & server utilization control Web Server Process Request with Modified URL Content Adaptation Layer Load Monitor & Utilization Cotrol Response Request Communication subsystem

  5. QoS Adaptation Architecture (2/4) • Load Monitoring • To quantify server utilization • The request service time (a URL of size x) • T(x) = a + bx (a : fixed overhead comp. b : data-size dep. comp.) • System utilization • U = aR + bW (R : request rate, W : delivered BW) • Determine a and b off-line

  6. QoS Adaptation Architecture (3/4) • Utilization Control • The Content Adaptor • M content trees • G : the severity of the adaptation action required from the adaptor • G = M : all requests served the highest quality content • G = 0 : all requests must be rejected • H() : hashing function, maps a given client id to the same number every time

  7. QoS Adaptation Architecture (4/4) • The Utilization Controller • A good value : 85% • Use well-known integral controller

  8. QoS Management (1/3) • Performance Isolation • Service Differentiation • Excess Capacity Sharing

  9. QoS Management (2/3) • Performance Isolation • A virtual server • A web server can host multiple independent sites • Associate a virtual server with each hosted site • Capacity planning • Load Classification • Utilization control

  10. QoS Management (3/3) • Service Differentiation • Support client prioritization lower priority clients are degraded first • The capacity should be made available to clients in priority order • Sharing Excess Capacity • The excess capacity is made available to other virtual servers

  11. Evaluation (1/5) • Environments • Testing tool : httperf • Clients : 4 WSs, connected to 100M switched ethernet • Estimating Service Time • T(x) = a + bx, a = 1.604, b= 0.063

  12. Evaluation (2/5) • Request Rejection Overhead • To quantify the rejection overhead • The server rejects all requests by closing the connection as soon as the request is read off the server socket • The maximum rate was found : 900 reqs/s  1.1ms/req (cf. a = 1.604) • Rejecting a set of requests will consume almost 70% of the resources it would take to serve them a short URL

  13. Evaluation (3/5) • Performance Isolation • Non-guaranteed background best-effort traffic • To overload the machine • 300req/s(for 32KB URLs) • Server V1 • Guaranteed BW : 13Mb/s • Maximum guaranteed rate : 50req/s • Server V2 • Guaranteed BW : 27Mb/s • Maximum guaranteed rate : 100req/s

  14. Evaluation (4/5) • Service Differentiation • 2 classes • B : basic class • increasing • P : premium class • 100 req/s

  15. Evaluation (5/5) • Excess Capacity Sharing • V1 • 13 Mb/s, 100req/s • allowed to overrun its capacity • Increased gradually 0-250req/s • V2 • 27 Mb/s, 100req/s • Held constant 100req/s

  16. Conclusion • Conclusion • Content adaptation enables a server to provide a smooth range of client degradation • Performance isolation • Service differentiation • Sharing excess capacity • Future Work • Handling and adapting dynamic content : unpredictability of CGI • HTTP 1.1 : persistent connection • VOD server • Scalable video encoding schemes  to avoid multiple copies • Appropriate content authoring and management tools to preprocess web contents
