Abstract
We present an efficient resource management system, namely Erms, for guaranteeing SLAs with high probability in shared microservice environments. Erms profiles microservice latency as a piece-wise linear function of the workload, resource usage, and interference. Based on this profiling, Erms builds resource scaling models to optimally determine latency targets for microservices with complex dependencies. Erms also designs new scheduling policies at shared microservices to further enhance resource efficiency. Experiments across microservice benchmarks as well as trace-driven simulations demonstrate that Erms can reduce SLA violation probability by 5× and more importantly, lead to a reduction in resource usage by 1.6×, compared to state-of-the-art approaches.
