Estimating the term…
An automated method of managing computing resources having a workload of a given type comprises providing resource data collectors for collecting data regarding performance of the resources, such as a server network, in accordance with the type of workload; developing a forecast of utilization of the resources, based on historical performance data; and collecting real-time performance data regarding the resources running under the workload. The method then includes analyzing the performance data and the forecast to identify a critical resource: and automatically adjusting a capacity of the resource to provide steady-state performance of the resource under the workload. Additional hardware resources such as CPUs, computer memory and computer disk storage are initially available to, but unused by, the computing resources.
An automated method of managing computing resources having a workload of a given type, the method comprising:
A program storage device readable by a machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform an automated method of managing computing resources having a workload of a given type, using resource data collectors for collecting data regarding performance of the resources in accordance with the type of workload, and a forecast of utilization of the resources based on historical performance data, said method steps comprising:
A computer program product for performing an automated method of managing computing resources having a workload of a given type, using resource data collectors for collecting data regarding performance of the resources in accordance with the type of workload, and a forecast of utilization of the resources based on historical performance data, said computer program product having:
