Chameleon

Update: This tool is no longer maintained and supported.

Chameleon

Chameleon is a new hybrid auto-scaling mechanism combining multiple different proactive methods coupled with a reactive fallback. Chameleon reconfigures the deployment of an application in a way that the supply of resources matches the current and estimated future demand for resources as closely as possible according to the definition of elasticity.

  • The code is currently under construction. Chameleon source coud will be published soon
  • Measurement data is available here
