Abstract :
The dominance of the Cloud paradigm and the proliferation of Cloud services are resulting in increasing scales of Cloud hosting infrastructures and associated complexities that are making their sustainability a growing concern. Cloud data centers are growing in size to millions of nodes. Furthermore, Clouds are being used to support mission critical support for many industries. Finally, the environmental impact of Cloud data centers is becoming an increasing concern. How can this mass migration to Clouds best be sustained? This panel will explore issues and challenges related to the sustainability of very large-scale cloud infrastructures from multiple perspectives.
