Processing platform with metric mapping for interoperability of multiple distinct models

A method comprising:

• storing metric and level information for each of a plurality of models;
• utilizing the stored metric and level information to establish an association between a first metric characterizing at least one of a workload and a resource in accordance with a first one of the models and a second metric characterizing at least one of a workload and a resource in accordance with a second one of the models;
• applying the established association to relate service requirements specified at least in part using the first metric of the first model to service capabilities specified at least in part using the second metric of the second model;
• and
• selecting one or more particular resource configurations to make available for execution of one or more particular workloads based at least in part on the relation of the service requirements specified at least in part using the first metric of the first model to the service capabilities specified at least in part using the second metric of the second model;
• wherein the storing, utilizing, applying and selecting are performed by at least one processing device having a processor coupled to a memory.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory processor-readable storage medium having one or more software programs embodied therein, wherein the one or more software programs when executed by at least one processing device cause said at least one processing device:

• to store metric and level information for each of a plurality of models;
• to utilize the stored metric and level information to establish an association between a first metric characterizing at least one of a workload and a resource in accordance with a first one of the models and a second metric characterizing at least one of a workload and a resource in accordance with a second one of the models;
• to apply the established association to relate service requirements specified at least in part using the first metric of the first model to service capabilities specified at least in part using the second metric of the second model;
• and
• to select one or more particular resource configurations to make available for execution of one or more particular workloads based at least in part on the relation of the service requirements specified at least in part using the first metric of the first model to the service capabilities specified at least in part using the second metric of the second model.
