VM Automation using Libvirt API for Improving Data Center Performance

Abstract

As with time application of cloud and high performance requirement is increasing. Data centers play a very major role in providing high speed computing and scalable infrastruc- ture to user and large organization, yet expanding data cent er with increasing demand is not feasible. Hence we came up with a solution of increasing throughput and decreasing latency by automating some features of virtualization and also by bypassing the kernel and hypervisor section.Also, we tested whether these features can work hand-in-hand with tools like PPPoE, IPsec and NAT. We implemented such topologies with different testing scenarios.
