ReProbe: An Architecture for Reconfigurable and Adaptive Probes

Modern distributed systems are highly dynamic and scalable, requiring monitoring solutions that can adapt to rapid changes. Monitoring systems that rely on external probes can only achieve adaptation through expensive operations such as deployment, undeployment, and reconfiguration.This poster paper introduces ReProbes, a class of adaptive monitoring probes that can handle rapid changes in data collection strategies. ReProbe offers controllable and configurable self-adaptive capabilities for data transmission, collection, and analysis methods. The resulting architecture can effectively enhance probe adaptability when qualitatively compared to state-of-the-art monitoring solutions.
