Using Virtualization to Improve Software Rejuvenation
Availability of business-critical application servers is an issue of paramount importance in Cloud Computing. In this paper, we present an approach for software rejuvenation based on automated self-healing techniques that can be easily applied to off-the-shelf Application Servers in a Cloud environment. Software aging and transient failures are detected through continuous monitoring of system data and performability metrics of the application server. If some anomalous behavior is
