Automatic Scaling Mechanism of Intermodal EDI System under Green Cloud Computing by Qiang Huang, Lin Sun, Furong Jia, Jiaxin Yuan, Yao Wu, Jinshan Pan

“…In order to solve the problem of mismatching between application load and computing resource capacity and realize on-demand resource allocation and low carbon emission, this paper proposes to build an Extensible EDI system (XEDI) based on MSA and studies the scaling mechanism in container environment. Based on the resource scheduling characteristics of container cloud and considering the distribution and heterogeneity of intermodal cloud computing platform from the perspective of resource allocation, the automatic scaling mechanism of XEDI is established, the scaling model is established, and the automatic scaling algorithm is proposed. …”
