Processing system i.e. cloud computing system, for deporting storage and data processing operations, has communication units storing data to be perennialized when auto-scaling module controls suppression of server instances

摘要

The system has a set of server instances (210-212), and an auto-scaling module (201) that is adapted for dynamically creating and removing one server instance according to requirements in capacity for processing purposes. Each server instance has a local storage unit (220-222) such as hard disk drive. A set of communication units is arranged for storing data i.e.file, to be perennialized on the local storage units or on the server instances when the auto-scaling module controls a suppression of the server instances. An independent claim is also included for a method for implementing a processing system.
