Abstract
The scale of global data center market has been explosive in recent years. As the market grows, the demand for fast provisioning of the virtual resources to support elastic, manageable, and economical computing over the cloud becomes high. Fast provisioning of large-scale virtual machines (VMs), in particular, is critical to guarantee quality of service (QoS). In this paper, we systematically review the existing VM provisioning schemes and classify them in three main categories. We discuss the features and research status of each category, and introduce two recent solutions, VMThunder and VMThunder+, both of which can provision hundreds of VMs in seconds. © 2016, Higher Education Press and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
