Quiescence, in a nutshell, is your mom telling you to "finish what you're doing but don't start anything new, we're getting ready to go".
It's an integral capability of load balancers (of enterprise-class load balancers, at least) that enables the graceful shutdown of application instances for a variety of purposes (patches, scheduled maintenance, etc... ).
In more modern architectures this capability forms the foundation for non-disruptive (and thus live) migration of virtual machines.During the process the VM is moved and launched in location Y, the load balancer continues to send requests to the same VM in location X. Once the VM is available in location Y, the load balancer will no longer send new requests to location X but will continue to manage existing connections until they are complete.
Cloud bursting, too, is enabled by the ability of a load balancer to quiesce connections at a global layer (virtual pattern) and at the local layer (bridged pattern).
Load balancers must be able to support a "finish what's been started but don't start anything new" mode of operation on any given application.
The inability of a load balancing service to quiesce connections impacts not only the ability to implement specific architectural patterns, but it can seriously impact elasticity.
The IMPACT on ELASTICITY
Scaling out is easy, especially in the cloud. Add another instance of the application to the load balancing service and voila! Instant capacity. But scaling back, that's another story. You can't just stop the instance when load contracts, because, well, any existing connections relying on that instance will simply vanish. It's disruptive, in a very negative way, and can have a real impact on revenue (what happened to my order?) as well as productivity (that was three hours of work lost, OMERGERD).
Scaling back requires careful collaboration between the load balancing service and the management framework to ensure that the process is graceful, that is, non-disruptive. It is unacceptable to business and operational stakeholders to simply "cut off" connections that may in the middle of executing a transaction or performing critical business functions. The problem is that the load balancing service must be imbued with enough intelligence to discern that there is a state between "up" and "down" for an instance. It must recognize that this state indicates "maintain, but do not add" connections.
It is this capability, this stateful capability, that makes it difficult for many cloud and SDN-related architectures to really support the notion of elasticity at the application services layer. They might be able to scale out, but scaling back in requires more intelligence (and stateful awareness) than is currently available with most of these solutions.

Kenner Life Insurance
Our life insurance specialists are the solution you are looking for if you need life insurance in Kenner. Our life insurance professionals will help you find the best life insurance option for your unique situation. Secure your financial future. Please call us today.
What is Life Insurance?
Life insurance is a contract between a person and an insurance provider. The customer pays a specified amount, or "premium", on a regular basis, and in return the company pays a designated amount to a beneficiary once the term of insurance is over (generally at the policy owner's time of death).
What are the pros & cons of term & universal life insurance
With term life insurance, the owner of the policy pays for a certain amount of time and the benefits are only available for a set period.
Universal or whole life insurance is permanent, guaranteed for the entire duration of the owner's life. If set up correctly, whole or universal life insurance plans provide easy access to needed funds, while also providing for tax-advantaged growth of wealth.
Both kinds of life insurance offer benefits. To find out which life insurance solution will work best for you, talk to our Kenner insurance professionals.
How does life insurance compare to other investment options?
Depending on our unique circumstance, there will be pros and cons to every investment plan. The most important thing to think about is selecting the correct financial advisor who will take care of your needs.
Who Needs Life Insurance?
All adults, no matter how old they are, have a need for life insurance.
Why Should Everyone Purchase Life Insurance?
- Provide a way for your family to pay for funeral expenses.
- To cover living expenses, such as tuition, groceries, and utility bills.
- Paying off mortgages and other outstanding debts.
There are many other reasons to purchase life insurance. Talk to a Gregory Ricks & Associates life insurance professional to find out more about your options.

Focus is everything. As John Lee Dumas puts it FOCUS is "Follow One Course Until Success". It is easy to get caught up in Meetups, connecting with other entrepreneurs, reading books that are good but not necessarily helping you with your business TODAY and spending way too much time on the non-essential parts of your business such as branding, marketing, etc.
I think Paul Graham from Y Combinator hits the nail on the head "A startup founder should be writing code and talking to users. That's it." As entrepreneurs we tend to get a little ADD but it's vital we remind ourselves that the ultimate path to success is through building strong learning environments around users and quickly developing a solid minimum viable product (MVP) to get validation sooner rather than later.
Take time to meditate on the current distribution of your time and realign your prioritizes as needed. Go get 'em!
