Abstract

Cloud computing is a growing field where many services are used by businesses due to its features such as scalability and ease of access to resources on demand. Since the cloud providers manage the resource allocation, transparency in it would be a requirement. Bringing in a decentralized approach would make the system more transparent to the cloud users. This study proposes to build a system that would store the scaling information and the logs that help to identify the scaling requirement to Hyperledger Fabric. To perform this, external monitoring tools are used along with AWS Services such as EC2, SQS, DynamoDB and designed to build a well-performing system under various workloads. Various experiments were conducted to identify the issues in the system and identify the design that could process all the requests successfully. The system’s performance outperformed the previous research and showed improved latency and throughput in the benchmarking test performed using Hyperledger Caliper.
