RTP: Robust Tenant Placement for Elastic In-Memory Database Clusters
Summary: RTP enables robust tenant placement for elastic DB clusters to cut cloud costs while preserving response-time guarantees. Evaluated on SAP traces; shows 2.2–10× cost savings vs SOTA and analyzes migration cost vs robustness under spikes and failures. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
