Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, relating to managing resources. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving configuration information, the configuration information specifying a plurality of parameter values including values for a size and input/output performance parameters, where the size and performance parameters are independently specified by a user; determining one or more physical resources that satisfy the received configuration information; and generating one or more virtual disk instances having the specified size and performance parameters.
Claims45
A method for managing cloud computing resources performed by data processing apparatus, the method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of user-specified parameter values including values for storage size and input/output performance parameters for a virtual disk instance;
- generating one or more virtual disk instances having the user-specified parameter values;
- monitoring usage of the one or more virtual disk instances;
- determining that the monitored usage of the one or more virtual disk instances satisfies a threshold;
- in response to determining that the monitored usage of the one or more virtual disk instances satisfies the threshold, determining two or more modified parameter values that result in a lower price than a price determined based on the corresponding two or more user-specified parameter values;
- and
- updating the corresponding two or more user-specified parameter values with the two or more modified parameter values.
A non-transitory computer storage medium encoded with a computer program, the program comprising instructions that when executed by data processing apparatus cause the data processing apparatus to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a plurality of user-specified parameter values including values for storage size and input/output performance parameters for a virtual disk instance;
- generating one or more virtual disk instances having the user-specified parameter values;
- monitoring usage of the one or more virtual disk instances;
- determining that the monitored usage of the one or more virtual disk instances satisfies a threshold;
- in response to determining that the monitored usage of the one or more virtual disk instances satisfies the threshold, determining two or more modified parameter values that result in a lower price than a price determined based on the corresponding two or more user-specified parameter values;
- and
- updating the corresponding two or more user-specified parameter values with the two or more modified parameter values.
A system comprising:
- one or more computers operable to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a plurality of user-specified parameter values including values for storage size and input/output performance parameters for a virtual disk instance;
- generating one or more virtual disk instances having the user-specified parameter values;
- monitoring usage of the one or more virtual disk instances;
- determining that the monitored usage of the one or more virtual disk instances satisfies a threshold;
- in response to determining that the monitored usage of the one or more virtual disk instances satisfies the threshold, determining two or more modified parameter values that result in a lower price than a price determined based on the corresponding two or more user-specified parameter values;
- and
- updating the corresponding two or more user-specified parameter values with the two or more modified parameter values.
