  1. Cataclysm: Handling Extreme Overloads in Internet Services Bhuvan Urgaonkar and Prashant Shenoy University of Massachusetts Amherst

  2. Overloads in Internet Applications Bottleneck! • Internet apps experience overloads • E.g. 20 fold increase in CNN traffic on 9/11 • Goal: Handle overloads without app downtime Ecommerce app • Key idea: Scalable policing & provisioning

  3. Cataclysm Components • Provisioner: Queuing theoretic app models • Add servers to overloaded apps • Policer: Differentiated service and scalability • Admit important requests during overload • Switch to approx. admission control at high loads • Even higher loads => multiple sentries, DNS RR d2 > d1 d1 Admitted d2 Admission Control Dropped Classifier

  4. Fraction admitted Arrival rate 1.2 250 1 200 0.8 GLD GLD 150 Fraction admitted Arrival rate 0.6 SIL SIL 100 BRZ BRZ 0.4 50 0.2 0 0 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 Time (sec) Time (sec) Cataclysm Policer • Admits important requests during overloads • Admitted requests see good response time • Single policer: arrival rates upto 19,000 req/s • Can add more policers at higher loads

  5. Concluding Remarks • The Cataclysm hosting platform • Scalable policer • Dynamic provisioning of servers • Implementation on Linux cluster of size 20 • Experimentation with variety of workloads
