CLOUD-DISTRIBUTED APPLICATION RUNTIME - AN EMERGING LAYER OF MULTI-CLOUD APPLICATION SERVICES FABRIC

A cloud distributed application runtime is deployed to execute a cloud infrastructure. During deployment of an application service by the cloud infrastructure, each action implemented in the cloud infrastructure is traced, from an initiation of the application service to a termination of the application service. Level objectives associated with the cloud infrastructure and associated with the application service deployed by the cloud infrastructure are tracked. In response to tracing an action implemented in the cloud infrastructure and in response to tracking the level objectives, a scaling decision associated with the application service is determined. The scaling decision incudes either an upscaling or a downscaling. In response to determining the scaling decision, the scaling decision is implemented to match the level objectives associated with the cloud infrastructure and associated with the application service.
