Abstract
In a cloud computing environment, it is beneficial for the cloud service provider to offer differentiated services among different customers, who often have different cost profiles. Therefore, cost-aware scheduling of queries is important. A practical cost-aware scheduling algorithm must be able to handle the highly demanding query volumes in the scheduling queues to make online scheduling decisions very quickly. We develop such a highly efficient cost-aware query scheduling algorithm, called iCBS. iCBS takes the query costs derived from the service level agreements (SLAs) between the service provider and its customers into account to make cost-aware scheduling decisions. iCBS is an incremental variation of an existing scheduling algorithm, CBS. Although CBS exhibits an exceptionally good cost performance, it has a prohibitive time complexity. Our main contributions are (1) to observe how CBS behaves under piecewise linear SLAs, which are very common in cloud computing systems, and (2) to efficiently leverage these observations and to reduce the online time complexity from
