  1. WW Grid Grid meets Economics:A Market Paradigm for “Resource Management and Scheduling” for World-Wide Grid Computing Rajkumar Buyya Melbourne, Australiawww.buyya.com/ecogrid

  2. WW Grid Need Honest Answers! • I want to have access to your Grid resources & want to knowhow many of you are willing to give me access ? (following cases) • I am unable to give you access our Australian machines, but I want to have access to yours! • Want to solve academic problems • Want to solve business problems • I am willing to gift you Kangaroos! (bartering) • I am willing to give you access to my machines, if you want. (sharing, but no measure & no QoS) • I am willing to pay you dollars on usage basis. (economic incentive, market-based, and QoS)

  3. Grid EconomyGrid Scheduling Economics Overview • A quick glance at today’s Grid computing • Resource Management challenges for next generation Grid computing • A Glance at Approaches to Grid computing. • Grid Architecture for Computational Economy • Economy Grid = Globus + GRACE • Nimrod-G -- Grid Resource Broker • Scheduling Experiments • Case Study: Drug Design Application on Grid • Conclusions

  4. 2100 2100 2100 2100 2100 2100 2100 2100 2100 Scalable HPC: Breaking Administrative Barriers & new challenges ? PERFORMANCE Administrative Barriers • Individual • Group • Department • Campus • State • National • Globe • Inter Planet • Universe Desktop SMPs or SuperComputers Global Cluster/Grid Inter Planetary Grid! Local Cluster Enterprise Cluster/Grid

  5. Why Grids? Large Scale Explorations need them—Killer Applications. • Solving grand challenge applications using modeling, simulation and analysis Aerospace Internet & Ecommerce Life Sciences CAD/CAM Digital Biology Military Applications Military Applications Military Applications

  6. data archives What is Grid ? • An infrastructure that logically couples distributed resources: • Computers– PCs, workstations, clusters, supercomputers, laptops, notebooks, mobile devices, PDA, etc; • Software– e.g., ASPs renting expensive special purpose applications on demand; • Catalogued data and databases– e.g. transparent access to human genome database; • Special devices – e.g., radio telescope – SETI@Home searching for life in galaxy. • People/collaborators. • and presents them as an integrated global resource. • It enables the creation of virtual enterprises (VEs) for resource sharing. Widearea

  7. Grid Applications-Drivers • Distributed HPC (Supercomputing): • Computational science. • High-throughput computing: • Large scale simulation/chip design & parameter studies. • Content Sharing (free or paid) • Sharing digital contents among peers (e.g., Napster) • Remote software access/renting services: • Application service provides (ASPs). • Data-intensive computing: • Data mining, particle physics (CERN), Drug Design. • On-demand, realtime computing: • Medical instrumentation & network-enabled solvers. • Collaborative: • Collaborative design, data exploration, education.

  8. Building and Using Grids require • Services that make our systems Grid Ready! • Security mechanisms that permit resources to be accessed only by authorized users. • (New) programming tools that make our applications Grid Ready!. • Tools that can translate the requirements of an application/user into the requirements of computers, networks, and storage. • Tools that perform resource discovery, trading, selection/allocation, scheduling and distribution of jobs and collects results. Globus ?

  9. Players in Grid Computing

  10. What users want ?Users in Grid Economy & Strategy • Grid Consumers • Execute jobs for solving varying problem size and complexity • Benefit by selecting and aggregating resources wisely • Tradeoff timeframe and cost • Strategy: minimise expenses • Grid Providers • Contribute “idle” resource for executing consumer jobs • Benefit by maximizing resource utilisation • Tradeoff local requirements & market opportunity • Strategy: maximise return on investment

  11. Challenges for Next Generation Grid Technology Development

  12. Sources of Complexity in Resource Management for World Wide Grid Computing • Size (large number of nodes, providers, consumers) • Heterogeneity of resources (PCs, Workstations, clusters, and supercomputers, instruments, databases, software) • Heterogeneity of fabric management systems (single system image OS, queuing systems, etc.) • Heterogeneity of fabric management polices • Heterogeneity of application requirements (CPU, I/O, memory, and/or network intensive) • Heterogeneity in resource demand patterns (peak, off-peak, ...) • Applications need different QoS at different times (time critical results). The utility of experimental results varies from time to time. • Geographical distribution of users & located different time zones • Differing goals (producers and consumers have different objectives and strategies) • Unsecure and Unreliable environment

  13. Traditional approaches to resource management & scheduling are NOT useful for Grid ? • They use centralised policy that need • complete state-information and • common fabric management policy or decentralised consensus-based policy. • Due to too many heterogenous parameters in the Grid it is impossible to define/get: • system-wide performance matrix and • common fabric management policy that is acceptable to all. • “Economics” paradigm proved to effective institution in managing decentralization and heterogeneity that is present in human economies! • Fall of USSR & Emergence of US as world superpower! (monopoly?) • So, we propose/advocate the use of computational economics principles in management of resources and scheduling computations on world wide Grid. • Think locally and act globally approach to grid computing!

  14. Benefits of Computational Economies • It provides a nice paradigm for managing self interested and self-regulating entities (resource owners and consumers) • Helps in regulating supply-and-demand of resources. • Services can be priced in such a way that equilibrium is maintained. • User-centric / Utility driven • Scalable: • No need of central coordinator (during negotiation) • Resources(sellers) and also Users(buyers) can make their own decisions and try to maximize utility and profit. • Adaptable, • It helps in offering different QoS (quality of services) to different applications depending the value users place on them. • It improves the utilisation of resources • It offers incentive for resource owners for being part of the grid! • It offers incentive for resource consumers for being good citizens • There is large body of proven Economic principles and techniques available, we can easily leverage it.

  15. New challenges of Computational Economy • Resource Owners • How do I decide prices ? (economic models?) • How do I specify them ? • How do I enforce them ? • How do I advertise & attract consumers ? • How do I do accounting and handle payments? • ….. • Resource Consumers • How do I decide expenses ? • How do I express QoS requirements ? • How I trade between timeframe & cost ? • …. • Any tools, traders & brokers available to automate the process ?

  18. WW Grid Many Testbeds ? & who pays ?, who regulates demand and supply ? GUSTO (decommissioned) World Wide Grid Legion Testbed NASA IPG

  19. Testbeds so far -- observations • Who contributed resources & why ? • Volunteers: for fun, challenge, fame, charismatic apps, public good like distributed.net & SETI@Home projects. • Collaborators: sharing resources while developing new technologies of common interest – Globus, Legion, Ninf, Ninf, MC Broker, Lecce GRB,... Unless you know lab. leaders, it is impossible to get access! • How long ? • Short term: excitement is lost, too much of admin. Overhead (Globus inst+), no incentive, policy change,… • What we need ? Grid Marketplace! • Regulates supply-and-demand, offers incentive for being players, simple, scalable solution, quasi-deterministic – proven model in real-world.
