Abstract

This paper discusses the development of cloud app simulator that allows comparing strategies for cloud app scaling that is defined the specific requirements for possibilities of the simulator. It is conducted formalization of the requirements cloud app simulator and projected its architecture that supports interaction with outside scaling modules and allows calculating of cloud app metrics as the average execution time of network query, processor load and memory. Calculation of metrics is based on interpolation results of real testing load of cloud app. The developed simulator can reduce the effectiveness of the evaluation strategy for cloud app scaling and significantly reduce cash costs for testing by eliminating the use of cloud virtual machines during testing.
