Abstract: An automatically self-healing multi-tier system for providing seamless resiliency for end users is provided. The system includes a plurality of tiers of elements; a processor; a memory; and a communication interface. The processor is configured to determine whether each respective tier of elements satisfies each of a plurality of intrinsic observer capabilities, a plurality of intrinsic reactor capabilities, a plurality of first health checks received from an internal tier, and a plurality of second health checks received from an external tier. When any of the intrinsic observer capabilities and the intrinsic reactor capabilities are not satisfied, an extrinsic observer capability and/or an extrinsic reactor capability is used to compensate for the unsatisfied capability. When any of health checks discover a degradation of service, communication flows are routed so as to fully or partially avoid the affected tier of elements.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable and executable instructions are provided for dynamically balancing execution resources to meet a budget and/or a QoS of projects. An example method can include analyzing a submitted program for a project, where the program comprises data to execute the project and a specification for the project, determining a computing resource allocation based upon the submitted data and the specification, and deploying for execution the submitted data to the determined computing resource allocation. The method can include monitoring progress during the execution of the data to determine a probability of project completion satisfying the specification, and dynamically balancing the execution resources to meet the budget and/or the QoS of the project to satisfy the specification.
