Abstract
Disclosed are a system and method of integrating an on-demand compute environment into a local compute environment. The method includes receiving a request from an administrator to integrate an on-demand compute environment into a local compute environment and, in response to the request, automatically integrating local compute environment information with on-demand compute environment information to make available resources from the on-demand compute environment to requesters of resources in the local compute environment such that policies of the local environment are maintained for workload that consumes on-demand compute resources.

A method comprising:
- detecting passing of a service-based threshold or a policy-based threshold in a local compute environment;
- upon the detecting of the passing of the service-based threshold or the policy-based threshold, causing local workload information to be routed to a remote compute environment to enable selection of compute resources of the remote compute environment that are compatible with the local workload information;
- and
- causing workload associated with a job to be transferred from the local compute environment to the remote compute environment to yield transferred workload.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising;
- detecting passing of a service-based threshold or a policy-based threshold in a first compute environment;
- based at least on the detecting the passing of the service-based threshold or the policy-based threshold, causing workload information to be sent to a second compute environment to select compute resources of the second compute environment that are compatible with the local workload information;
- and
- causing workload associated with a job to be offloaded from the first compute environment to the second compute environment to yield offloaded workload
A system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- receive first data relating to passing of a service-based threshold or a policy-based threshold in a first compute environment;
- based at least on the received first data, cause information associated with a one or more jobs to be transferred to a second compute environment, the second compute environment being separately managed from the first compute environment;
- and
- cause workload associated with the one or more jobs to be sent from the first compute environment to the second compute environment.
