Control AutoProvisioning
URI: AutoProvisioning
Package: CloudManagement
Description: Instances of the (virtual) Host can be automatically provisioned to increase capacity to meet loads from hosted processes or other virtual hosts.
Common parent class for any host that is automatically scalable, i.e. a virtual host where the number of instances can be increased to handle increased loads. |
Faulty instances of the virtual device Host can be detected by monitoring, halted, and a replacement provisioned automatically. |
|
Faulty instances of the process Process can be detected by monitoring, halted, and a replacement provisioned automatically. |
|
Automated provisioning is specified at process Process but this is an inappropriate control selection because user Human is using the process interactively. |
|
The (virtual) device Host is operating as a cluster, which allows automatic scaling in the number of instances to meet the load placed upon the host. This must be configured in advance, so it is a blocking strategy not a contingency plan or run-time threat response. |
