Numerous event-based probing methods exist for cloud computing environments allowing a hypervisor to gain insight into guest activities. Such event-based probing has been shown to be useful for detecting attacks, system hangs through watchdogs, and for inserting exploit detectors before a system can be patched, among others. Here, we illustrate how to use such probing for trustworthy logging and highlight...
Many current VM monitoring approaches require guest OS modifications and are also unable to perform application level monitoring, reducing their value in a cloud setting. This paper introduces hprobes, a framework that allows one to dynamically monitor applications and operating systems inside a VM. The hprobe framework does not require any changes to the guest OS, which avoids the tight coupling...
The prospect of simpler infrastructure management and affordability has garnered interest in cloud computing from bioinformaticians. However, the performance cost of adopting such an infrastructure model for bioinformatics is not fully known. In an effort to help quantify this performance cost, we ran synthetic benchmarks and measured the runtimes of two short-read alignment applications on cloud-like...
HyperTap is a hypervisor-level monitoring framework for virtual machines (VMs). It uses hardware architectural invariants properties defined and enforced by a hardware platform to establish the root of trust for logging data and events. HyperTap also supports continuous, event-driven VM monitoring, which enables both capturing the system state and responding rapidly to actions of interest.
