Abstract

With the advent of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), SaaS developers are facing many challenges associated with the multi-Tenancy and the dramatically increased number of users. In order to achieve resource-optimized, on-demand dynamic scaling across multiple tenants, and reduce costs, in this paper, a new platform, named SmartVM, is created to enable SaaS developer to create, customize, and deploy SaaS solutions in a multi-Tier microservice-based manner. We develop an e-commerce SaaS prototype to evaluate effectiveness and efficiency of SmartVM. The results show that the SmartVM deployments outperforms the conventional monolithic and microservice deployments in smart monitoring, cost reduction, and resource optimization.
