Systems and methods for colocating virtual machines on one or more physical infrastructure

A resource management computing device comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory coupled to the processor which is configured to be capable of executing programmed instructions comprising and stored in the memory to:
• identify variability of the plurality of workloads running on the plurality of virtual machines from time series data;
• determine workload capacity threshold of the plurality of workloads based on one or more service requirements;
• select two or more candidate virtual machines among the plurality of virtual machines for co-locating based on the variability of the plurality of workloads running on the plurality of virtual machines;
• determine total capacity required by each pair of the plurality of workloads running on the two or more candidate virtual machines at a given time period to meet the one or more service requirements based on the workload capacity threshold;
• identify an optimal sharing point for each workload of the pair of the plurality of workloads running on the two or more candidate virtual machines with respect to another workload of the pair based on the required total capacity of the pair;
• and
• colocate the two or more candidate virtual machines on the one or more physical infrastructures based on the optimal sharing point.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for determining co-locatability of a plurality of virtual machines on one or more physical infrastructures, wherein the plurality of virtual machines host a plurality of workloads, comprising machine executable code which when executed by at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform steps comprising:

• identifying variability of the plurality of workloads running on the plurality of virtual machines from time series data;
• determining workload capacity threshold of the plurality of workloads based on one or more service requirements;
• determining total capacity required by each pair of the plurality of workloads running on the two or more candidate virtual machines at a given time period to meet the one or more service requirements based on the workload capacity threshold;
• identifying an optimal sharing point for each workload of the pair of the plurality of workloads running on the two or more candidate virtual machines with respect to another workload of the pair based on the required total capacity of the pair;
• and
• colocating the two or more candidate virtual machines on the one or more physical infrastructures based on the optimal sharing point.
