The objective of this project is to design the architecture of a cloud system including localization of data centres (DCs) and communication paths from end-users to these DCs able to provide resilience of the architecture in the scenarios of failures of network links and DCs. Particular focus is on the application of redundancy mechanisms (redundant DCs, redundant virtual machines, backup paths) to obtain an architecture that can survive failures occurring in the communication network as well as at the DC level.
Verification of characteristics of the designed architecture should be done via simulations conducted using a tool to be developed by a student.
