Abstract
Adaptive virtual servers with hypervisor managers may be used to manage several hypervisors, including hypervisors of different types. An adaptive virtual server may monitor resource utilization of virtual machines and dynamically assign resources to the virtual machines. Dynamic allocation of resources may improve efficiency for usage of available resources and improve performance of the virtual machines. Further, an adaptive virtual server may allocate resources to a virtual machine from multiple hypervisors, including hypervisors of different types.
Claims14
An apparatus, comprising:
- a hypervisor manager in communication with at least one virtual machine and at least one hypervisor,
