Abstract

The HotCloudPerf workshop is a meeting venue for academics and practitioners, from experts to trainees, in the field of cloud computing performance. The workshop aims to engage this community, and to lead to the development of new methodological aspects for gaining deeper understanding not only of cloud performance, but also of cloud operation and behavior, through diverse quantitative evaluation tools, including benchmarks, metrics, and workload generators. The workshop focuses on novel cloud properties such as elasticity, performance isolation, dependability, and other non-functional system properties, in addition to classical performance-related metrics such as response time, throughput, scalability, and efficiency. The theme for the 2021 edition is "Benchmarking in the Cloud". HotCloudPerf 2021, co-located with the 12th ACM/SPEC International Conference on Performance Engineering (ICPE 2021), is held on April 19-20th, 2021.
