Self-Maintaining Systems
Self-maintaining systems require:
- a robust platform that provides online self-testing of its hardware and software
- easy incremental scalability when existing resources stop providing desired quality of service
- rapid detection of anomalous behavior and changes in system environment
- failures, load spikes, changing access patterns, ...
- fast and flexible reaction to detected conditions
- flexible specification of conditions that trigger adaptation
Systems deployed on the ISTORE platform will be self-maintaining
