The need for reliability and availability has increased in modern applications, which need to handle rapidly growing demands while providing uninterrupted service. This work investigates the memory leak and memory fragmentation aging effects on the Eucalyptus cloud-computing framework, which considers workloads composed of intensive requests addressing different virtual machines. We experimentally show the existence of the investigated aging effects in the cloud environment under study. Also, a software rejuvenation strategy to mitigate the observed aging effects is proposed and its benefits are evaluated.
