A Mechanism for Improving Web Server Performance using Fuzzy Concept

Abstract

This paper presents a mechanism to improve Web server performance with fuzzy-based techniques. A load balancing mechanism based on the fuzzy control technique is developed in such a way that ambiguous situations caused by workload estimation of clusterbased Web servers, client request rates, and dynamic request rates can be represented in an effective way. Extensive experiments show that the fuzzy-based performance isolation technique improves the performance of Web servers in terms of the 95-percentile response times.
