This article proposes a cost-aware autoscaler for microservices-based applications deployed with docker containers. This autoscaler decreases the cost of the application deployment as it reduces computing resources. In elastic treatment, microservice resources are scaled when the used metric as the central processing unit (CPU) exceeds the threshold. In case of threshold exceeding, an autoscaler adds…

Traditionally, they deploy datacenters with sufficient capacity to accommodate their entire computing demand while maintaining geographical affinity to its customers. Achieving these goals by a single cloud provider is increasingly unrealistic from a cost of ownership perspective. Moreover, the carbon emissions from underutilized datacenters place an increasing…
