I would like to thank all the people who accompanied and supported me in the last four years of study and work in industry paving the way to this thesis. My personal thanks go to my parents supporting me in many ways. The decision to choose a complex topic in an area where I had no personal experience in advance, neither theoretically nor technologically, made the past four and a half months challenging, demanding, work-intensive, but also very educational which is what remains in good memory afterwards. Regarding this thesis, I would like to offer special thanks to Philipp Leitner who assisted me during the whole process and gave valuable advices. Moreover, I want to thank Jürgen Cito for his mainly technologically-related recommendations, Rita Erne for her time spent with me on language review sessions, and Prof. Harald Gall for giving me the opportunity to write this thesis at the Software Evolution & Architecture Lab at the University of Zurich and providing fundings and infrastructure to realize this thesis.

  • Data Center Architecture and Topology
    CENTRAL TRAINING INSTITUTE JABALPUR Data Center Architecture and Topology Data Center Architecture Overview The data center is home to the computational power, storage, and applications necessary to support an enterprise business. The data center infrastructure is central to the IT architecture, from which all content is sourced or passes through. Proper planning of the data center infrastructure design is critical, and performance, resiliency, and scalability need to be carefully considered. Another important aspect of the data center design is flexibility in quickly deploying and supporting new services. Designing a flexible architecture that has the ability to support new applications in a short time frame can result in a significant competitive advantage. Such a design requires solid initial planning and thoughtful consideration in the areas of port density, access layer uplink bandwidth, true server capacity, and oversubscription, to name just a few. The data center network design is based on a proven layered approach, which has been tested and improved over the past several years in some of the largest data center implementations in the world. The layered approach is the basic foundation of the data center design that seeks to improve scalability, performance, flexibility, resiliency, and maintenance. Figure 1-1 shows the basic layered design. 1 CENTRAL TRAINING INSTITUTE MPPKVVCL JABALPUR Figure 1-1 Basic Layered Design Campus Core Core Aggregation 10 Gigabit Ethernet Gigabit Ethernet or Etherchannel Backup Access The layers of the data center design are the core, aggregation, and access layers. These layers are referred to extensively throughout this guide and are briefly described as follows: • Core layer—Provides the high-speed packet switching backplane for all flows going in and out of the data center.

  • A Dynamic Power Management Schema for Multi-Tier Data Centers
    A Dynamic Power Management Schema for Multi-Tier Data Centers By Aryan Azimzadeh April, 2016 Director of Thesis: Dr. Nasseh Tabrizi Major Department: Computer Science An issue of great concern as it relates to global warming is power consumption and efficient use of computers especially in large data centers. Data centers have an important role in IT infrastructures because of their huge power consumption. This thesis explores the sleep state of data centers’ servers under specific conditions such as setup time and identifies optimal number of servers. Moreover, their potential to greatly increase energy efficiency in data centers. We use a dynamic power management policy based on a mathematical model. Our new methodology is based on the optimal number of servers required in each tier while increasing servers’ setup time after sleep mode to reduce the power consumption. The Reactive approach is used to prove the validity of the results and energy efficiency by calculating the average power consumption of each server under specific sleep mode and setup time. We introduce a new methodology that uses average power consumption to calculate the Normalized-Performance-Per-Watt in order to evaluate the power efficiency. Our results indicate that the proposed schema is beneficial for data centers with high setup time.

  • Efficiently Protecting Virtualized Desktop Infrastructures Against
    Efficiently Protecting Virtualized Desktop Infrastructures Against Malware Performance Comparison between Traditional- and Centralized Antivirus Arris Huijgen University of Twente Graduation Committee University of Twente Dr. Pascal van Eck Radboud University Nijmegen Dr.ir. Erik Poll Deloitte Coen Steenbeek, MSc Henri Hambartsumyan, MSc June 18, 2013 Executive Summary The cloud is getting increasingly popular and also desktops are migrated to the cloud which are called Hosted Virtual Desktops (HVDs). Because virtualization makes hard- ware resources very flexible, it is often used to build a cloud platform. These desktops also need to be protected against malware. Virtualization software provider VMware added capabilities to its corporate product to provide antivirus protection from outside the Virtual Machine (VM) using its vShield module. Several antivirus vendors including Trend Micro developed antivirus software making use of this module. Because no comparisons have been done yet between traditional antivirus and antivirus software making making use of virtualization, research has been conducted compar- ing Trend Micro's traditional antivirus software Worry-Free Business Security (WFBS) with its vShield-compatible antivirus software called Deep Security (DS). This research showed that despite self-protection measures it is relatively easy to disable or remove the DS antivirus software inside the HVD without being detected. Moreover, it turned out that in this small environment simulating 10 HVDs, the performance of WFBS is much better compared to DS while DS also used much more resources. This is a remark- able result as DS is specifically aimed for virtualized environments and can therefore be expected to perform better than the traditional WFBS antivirus software.
