Abstract: | As a new promising paradigm, cloud computing can make good use of economics of scale and elastically deliver almost any IT
related services on demand. Nevertheless, one of the key problems remaining in cloud computing is related to virtual machine
images, which require a great amount of space/time to reposit/provision, especially with diverse requests from thousands of
users simultaneously. In this paper, by using the splitting and eliminating redundant data techniques, a space and time efficient
approach for virtual machines is proposed. The experiments demonstrate that, compared with existing solutions, our approach
can conserve more disk space and speed up the provisioning of virtual machines. |
