Burst datacenter capacity for hyperscale workloads

A system comprising:

• a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable program instructions;
• and
• a processing device communicatively coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium for executing the computer-executable program instructions, wherein executing the computer-executable program instructions configures the processing device to perform operations comprising:
• monitoring, by a computing device, a primary load of a datacenter and a reserve load of the datacenter, the primary load of the datacenter configured to be powered by one or more primary generator blocks having a primary capacity, the primary load being less than the primary capacity and the reserve load of the datacenter configured to be powered by one or more reserve generator blocks having a reserve capacity;
• subsequent to at least one of an increase in the primary load or a decrease in the primary capacity, detecting, by the computing device, that the primary load of the datacenter exceeds the primary capacity;
• and
• connecting, by a switch of the computing device, the one or more reserve generator blocks to at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load,
• wherein subsequent to connecting the one or more reserve generator blocks to at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load, the one or more reserve generator blocks are connected to (a) the reserve load and (b) at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable program instructions, wherein when executed by a processing device, the computer-executable program instructions cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:

• monitoring, by a computing device, a primary load of a datacenter and a reserve load of the datacenter, the primary load of the datacenter configured to be powered by one or more primary generator blocks having a primary capacity, the primary load being less than the primary capacity and the reserve load of the datacenter configured to be powered by one or more reserve generator blocks having a reserve capacity;
• subsequent to at least one of an increase in the primary load or a decrease in the primary capacity, detecting, by the computing device, that the primary load of the datacenter exceeds the primary capacity;
• and
• connecting, by a switch of the computing device, the one or more reserve generator blocks to at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load,
• wherein subsequent to connecting the one or more reserve generator blocks to at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load, the one or more reserve generator blocks are connected to (a) the reserve load and (b) at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load.
