tended to a cross-layer monitoring with multiple lay-
ers. Second, we will investigate how to predict fu-
ture demands for scaling from expected workloads.
The workflow notion will provide this information ei-
ther based on the set of tasks to be triggered next or
by a clocked simulation of further workflow execu-
tion. As a first step, a partition function for measured
values on PaaS containers hosting multiple workflow
task instances has to be implemented. A comparison
study of the prospective solution with non-predictive
cloud management approaches will highlight the im-
portance of our approach.
