We present the results of our recent work published in [Hu17] and summarized in [Ko16]. We introduce a holistic model-based approach for self-aware performance and resource management of modern IT systems and infrastructures. Based on a novel online performance prediction process, we implement a model-based control loop ...

This extended abstract summarizes our article on extracting probabilistic workload spec- ifications for load testing and performance prediction of session-based application systems, which has been published recently in the Journal on Software and Systems Modeling [Vo ̈16].
