[AIAB-02] Architecture overview

The following picture represents the high-level architecture of how Akamas operates in this scenario.

Here are the main elements:

• The target system to be optimized is Konakart, a real-world e-commerce web application based on Java and running as a Docker container within a dedicated cloud instance - in this guide, the goal is to optimize Konakart throughput and response time

• The optimization scope in the Konakart Java Virtual Machine (JVM) with the configuration of the JVM parameters specified in a Docker configuration file on the Konakart cloud instance

• The optimization experiments leverage JMeter as a load-testing tool

• The optimization's results leverage Prometheus as a telemetry provider to collect load testing, JVM, and OS-level metrics.
