Abstract: Today, management and tuning questions are approached using if...then... rules of thumb. This reactive approach requires expertise regarding of system behavior, making it difficult to deal with unforeseen uses of a system's resources and leading to system unpredictability and large system management overheads. We propose a What...if... approach that allows interactive exploration of the effects of system changes, thus converting complex tuning problem into simpler search problems. Through two... (Update)
