Abstract Cloud computing is a method for accessing and managing computing resources over the internet, providing flexibility, scalability, and cost-efficiency. Cloud computing relies more and more on OS-level virtualization tools such as Docker and Podman, enabling users to create and run containers, which are widely used for application management. Given its significance in cloud infrastructures, it is crucial to have a better understanding of OS-level virtualization performance, especially in tasks related to container management (ex: creation, destruction).

Abstract Virtual machines are an essential technology in distributed and pervasive systems. One of its configurable parameters is the topology of the virtual processing system, which can potentially impact its performance. In this work, we verify how different virtual processing topologies affect the performance of VMs running BSD OSes. We conclude that in some types of application the topology does not affect the VM performance, while in others it does, and that the performance impact also depends on the OS adopted by the VM.

Abstract With the Internet of Things (IoT) growth and customer expectations, the importance of data streaming and streaming processing has increased. Data Streaming refers to the concept where data is processed and transmitted continuously and in real-time without necessarily being stored in a physical location. Personal health monitors and home security systems are examples of data streaming sources. This paper presents a systematic mapping study of the performance analysis of Data Streaming systems in the context of Containerization and Microservices.
