Abstract
An example cloud resource provisioning method comprises: receiving a cloud resource usage data identifying a first cloud resource consumed, a first usage level associated with the first cloud resource, a second cloud resource consumed, and a second usage level associated with the second cloud resource; identifying a preference for the first cloud resource over the second cloud resource; and causing, in view of the analyzing, the first cloud resource to be provisioned at least at the first usage level and the second cloud resource to be provisioned at a reduced usage level below the second usage level.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a processor, a cloud resource usage data identifying a first cloud resource consumed, a first usage level associated with the first cloud resource, a second cloud resource consumed, and a second usage level associated with the second cloud resource;
- identifying a preference for the first cloud resource over the second cloud resource;
- and
- causing, in view of the identifying, the first cloud resource to be provisioned at least at the first usage level and the second cloud resource to be provisioned at a reduced usage level below the second usage level.
A system, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor, operatively coupled to the memory, to:
- receive a cloud resource usage data identifying a first cloud resource consumed, a first usage level associated with the first cloud resource, a second cloud resource consumed, and a second usage level associated with the second cloud resource;
- identify a preference for the first cloud resource over the second cloud resource;
- and
- cause, in view of the identifying, the first cloud resource to be provisioned at least at the first usage level and the second cloud resource to be provisioned at a reduced usage level below the second usage level.
A computer-readable non-transitory storage medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
- receive a cloud resource usage data identifying a first cloud resource consumed, a first usage level associated with the first cloud resource, a second cloud resource consumed, and a second usage level associated with the second cloud resource;
- identify a preference for the first cloud resource over the second cloud resource;
- and
- cause, in view of the identifying, the first cloud resource to be provisioned at least at the first usage level and the second cloud resource to be provisioned at a reduced usage level below the second usage level.
