Abstract
A dynamic resource allocation method and system. The method includes the steps of preparing a plurality of instances in different preparation states; receiving a request on a dynamic scheduling condition from the client computer; and launching some of the plurality of instances in the different preparation states in such a combination that the dynamic scheduling condition is satisfied. The method includes computer apparatus for accomplishing the above method. A tangible storage medium includes program steps which, when executed by computer apparatus, causes the computer apparatus to perform the above method.
Claims17
A dynamic resource allocation method for a server system having resources including a plurality of computing nodes, the method implemented by the server system performing dynamic allocation of resources in response to a request from a client computer, the method comprising the steps of:
- preparing a plurality of instances in different preparation states;
- receiving a request on a dynamic scheduling condition from the client computer;
- and
- launching at least two of the plurality of instances in the different preparation states in a combination to achieve the dynamic scheduling.
A computer readable storage medium tangibly embodying computer readable program code having computer readable instructions which, when executed, cause a computer to carry out the steps of a method for dynamic resource allocation for a server system having resources of a plurality of computing nodes, in response to a request from a client computer, the method comprising the steps of:
- preparing a plurality of instances in different preparation states;
- receiving a request on a dynamic scheduling condition from the client computer;
- and
- launching at least two of the plurality of instances in the different preparation states to achieve the dynamic scheduling condition.
A dynamic resource allocation system in a server system having resources including a plurality of computing nodes, the dynamic resource allocation system configured to dynamically allocate resources in response to a request from a client computer by the processing of the server system, the dynamic resource allocation system comprising:
- a module for preparing a plurality of instances in different preparation states;
- a module for receiving a request on a dynamic scheduling condition from the client computer;
- and
- a module for launching at least two of the plurality of instances in the different preparation states to achieve the dynamic scheduling condition.
