Dynamically managing workload placements in virtualized environments based on current user globalization customization requests

A system for dynamically managing workload placements in virtualized environments, comprising:

• a processor, coupled with a memory, and configured to perform the actions of:
• receiving a plurality of workloads from a plurality of users requesting access to at least one virtualized application, each of the plurality of workloads specified with one or more separate globalization characteristics from among a plurality of globalization characteristics;
• and
• selectively directing each of the plurality of workloads separately for placement in one or more particular virtualized environments from among a plurality of virtualized environments based on the one or more separate globalization characteristics of each of the workloads, each virtualized environment comprising the at least one virtualized application configured for a separate selection of globalization services from among a plurality of globalization services optimized for handling a separate selection of the one or more separate globalization characteristics by:
• dynamically categorizing a plurality of partitions of a platform each according to a separate selection of the one or more separate globalization characteristics requested in each of the plurality of workloads, the plurality of globalization characteristics comprising a plurality of languages and a plurality of code sets, each of the plurality of partitions hosting a separate virtualized environment from among the plurality of virtualized environments with each separate selection of globalization services specified for a separate combination from among a plurality of combinations of a separate language selection from among the plurality of languages and a separate code set selection from among the plurality of code sets, each combination requiring separate amounts of computing resources within each separate virtualized environment within each of the plurality of partitions for each separate selection of globalization services to handle the size of memory buffer, CPU time, string formatting, and regular express processing for each combination, at least one first combination from among the plurality of combinations requiring more computing resources than at least one second combination from among the plurality of combinations;
• selectively directing a first workload from among the plurality of workloads, from a particular user from among the plurality of users, specified by a first combination from among the plurality of combinations, for a first partition from among the plurality of partitions, the first partition categorized for the first combination;
• and
• in response to receiving, from the particular user, a second workload from among the plurality of workloads specified by a second combination from among the plurality of combinations, selectively directing the second workload from among the plurality of workloads for a second partition from among the plurality of partitions, the second partition categorized for second combination.

A computer program product for dynamically managing workload placements in virtualized environments, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:

• receive a plurality of workloads from a plurality of users requesting access to at least one virtualized application, each of the plurality of workloads specified with one or more separate globalization characteristics from among a plurality of globalization characteristics;
• and
• selectively direct each of the plurality of workloads separately for placement in one or more particular virtualized environments from among a plurality of virtualized environments based on the one or more separate globalization characteristics of each of the workloads, each virtualized environment comprising the at least one virtualized application configured for a separate selection of globalization services from among a plurality of globalization services optimized for handling a separate selection of the one or more separate globalization characteristics by:
• dynamically categorizing a plurality of partitions of a platform each according to a separate selection of the one or more separate globalization characteristics requested in each of the plurality of workloads, the plurality of globalization characteristics comprising a plurality of languages and a plurality of code sets, each of the plurality of partitions hosting a separate virtualized environment from among the plurality of virtualized environments with each separate selection of globalization services specified for a separate combination from among a plurality of combinations of a separate language selection from among the plurality of languages and a separate code set selection from among the plurality of code sets, each combination requiring separate amounts of computing resources within each separate virtualized environment within each of the plurality of partitions for each separate selection of globalization services to handle the size of memory buffer, CPU time, string formatting, and regular express processing for each combination, at least one first combination from among the plurality of combinations requiring more computing resources than at least one second combination from among the plurality of combinations;
• selectively directing a first workload from among the plurality of workloads, from a particular user from among the plurality of users, specified by a first combination from among the plurality of combinations, for a first partition from among the plurality of partitions, the first partition categorized for the first combination;
• and
• in response to receiving, from the particular user, a second workload from among the plurality of workloads specified by a second combination from among the plurality of combinations, selectively directing the second workload from among the plurality of workloads for a second partition from among the plurality of partitions, the second partition categorized for second combination.
