Self-Organized Monitoring Plan at Cloud-Network Slice Granularity
Cloud-Network Slicing, Monitoring as a Service, service automation, edge-to-cloud continuum
The main goal of this master's research is to propose a new monitoring plan for the NECOS ecosystem, denoted as DIMA (Distributed Infrastructure & Monitoring Abstraction). The DIMA proposal aims to afford monitoring as a service inside NECOS domains at Cloud-Network Slice part granularity, based on the motivation evidenced by the analysis of related works. Currently, NECOS relies on the IMA (Infrastructure & Monitoring Abstraction) solution, which offers monitoring as a service from a centralized approach running at the core cloud premise. DIMA intends to advance the IMA solution by providing monitoring as a service for the NECOS ecosystem with the following improvements: full automation of monitoring service orchestration, support of different monitoring models (centralized, distributed, and hybrid), and harnessing the continuous edge-to-cloud.
