Abstract
A machine-controlled method can include determining an extended interval quality of service (QoS) specification for a batch job and determining a remaining data center resource requirement for the batch job based on the extended interval QoS specification. The machine-controlled method can also include determining an immediate QoS specification for the batch job based on the remaining data center resource requirement.
Claims20
A machine-controlled method, comprising:
- determining an extended interval quality of service (QoS) specification for a given batch job;
- for at least a first one of a plurality of time slices, determining a remaining data center resource requirement for the batch job based at least in part on the extended interval QoS specification;
- and
- determining an immediate QoS specification for the batch job based at least in part on the remaining data center resource requirement.
1 more element
A data center management system, comprising:
- a data center customer profile corresponding to a data center customer, the data center customer profile comprising:
- a service level agreement (SLA);
- and
- a data center resource usage model;
- a batch job quality of service (QoS) control module operable to determine an immediate QoS specification for a batch job of the data center customer;
- and
- a data center resource optimization module operable to determine a data center resource allocation for the data center customer based at least in part on the data center customer profile and on the immediate QoS specification.
4 more elements
A machine-controlled method, comprising:
- determining an extended interval quality of service (QoS) specification for a data center batch job, wherein determining the extended interval QoS specification comprises determining an allowed probability of failure q;
- determining a remaining data center resource requirement for the data center batch job based at least in part on the extended interval QoS specification;
- and
- determining an immediate QoS specification for the data center batch job based at least in part on the remaining data center resource requirement, wherein determining the immediate QoS specification comprises:
- determining a data center resource reservation S;
- and
- determining a failure tolerance p;
- and
- adjusting at least one of the data center resource reservation S and the failure tolerance p based at least in part on a progress of the batch job and the allowed probability of failure q.
