Abstract
System and method for performance control in a cloud computing environment uses dependency hierarchy between software entities executing in the cloud computing environment and operational status of each of the software entities executing in the cloud computing environment. Using the dependency hierarchy between the software entities and the operational status of each of the software entities, a scaling operation is performed to the virtual computing instances such that a service-level objective (SLO) of the cloud computing environment satisfies a predetermined threshold.
