A New Approach to Scalable ROIA in Cloud
Real-time online interactive application (ROIA) is an emerging distributed application in recent years. Scalability is a hot and key issue in ROIA. We are motivated by the facts that the number of concurrent users around the world is widely and periodically fluctuant and requirements for network latency in various ROIA are different. So we propose the Multi-ROIA Cloud Platform (MRCP), a new approach to achieve high scalability in ROIA under Cloud environment. In this paper, we firstly make a classification of the traditional approach to scalability in ROIA and compare their merits and disadvantages. And then we propose MRCP, explain the motivation and describe the architecture and balance strategy of MRCP.
