Implementation Autoscalling Container Web Server Using Kubernetes Proxmox-based on Server University of Darussalam Gontor

Abstract

Web server services based on virtualization at the University of Darussalam Gontor have not yet been implemented, besides the problem of websites in general is that the web server is not capable of serving a high number of requests so the web server can be down. One of these problems is caused by a server resource that is not capable and the management of a web server that is less than optimal. These problems can be addressed effectively and efficiently with server virtualization and autoscaling. Where server virtualization is managed by Proxmox and autoscaling managed by Kubernetes. Proxmox is a virtualization platform that is open source and is supported by KVM and OpenVZ hypervisors and is easily managed. Whereas Kubernetes is a platform that functions as a container orchestration to carry out the appointment, monitoring, scaling and recovery of containers. Collaboration virtualization and autoscaling can serve website access effectively and efficiently. The research methodology used is clustering by applying a high availability concept where there are secondary-servers as backup-servers for primaryservers. The results of this study include three parameters, namely Throughput, Response Time, and CPU Usage. The final results show that web servers that implement virtualization and autoscaling are better than web servers that do not implement virtualization and autoscaling with the difference in Throughput parameter values of 4494.34 KB/s, the difference in Response Time parameter values of 14.46 requests/second, and the difference in parameter values CPU Usage is 13.01%.
