Managing asset placement with respect to a distributed computing environment having a set of hosts

A system for managing asset placement with respect to a distributed computing environment having a set of hosts, the system comprising:

• a memory having a set of computer readable computer instructions, and
• a processor for executing the set of computer readable instructions, the set of computer readable instructions including:
• detecting, with respect to an asset for placement to the distributed computing environment, a set of host computing resource requirement data for the asset;
• identifying, with respect to the distributed computing environment, a set of computing resource profile data for the set of hosts;
• determining, by comparing the set of host computing resource requirement data for the asset and the set of computing resource profile data for the set of hosts, an asset placement arrangement;
• and
• establishing, based on the asset placement arrangement, the asset in the distributed computing environment.

A computer program product for managing asset placement with respect to a distributed computing environment having a set of hosts, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable storage medium is not a transitory signal per se, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform a method comprising:

• detecting, with respect to an asset for placement to the distributed computing environment, a set of host computing resource requirement data for the asset;
• identifying, with respect to the distributed computing environment, a set of computing resource profile data for the set of hosts;
• determining, by comparing the set of host computing resource requirement data for the asset and the set of computing resource profile data for the set of hosts, an asset placement arrangement;
• and
• establishing, based on the asset placement arrangement, the asset in the distributed computing environment.
