Application Driven and Adaptive Unified Resource Management For Data Centers with Multi-Resource Schedulable Unit (MRSU)

摘要

An apparatus comprising a processor configured to obtain estimated processing requirements, estimated memory requirements, estimated storage requirements, and estimated network communication requirements for a plurality of data center (DC) tenants; determine a Minimum Resource Schedulable Unit (MRSU) for the tenants, the determined MRSU comprising a dynamically allocatable group of processor resources, processing memory resources, storage resources, and network resources comprised in at least one of a plurality of DC servers, wherein the MRSU is determined such that each DC tenant's estimated processing requirements, estimated memory requirements, estimated storage requirements, and estimated network communications requirements are met by allocation of a corresponding integer value of MRSUs; and allocate the corresponding integer value of MRSUs to each DC tenant as an MRSU allocation; and a transmitter coupled to the processor and configured to transmit the MRSU allocation to the DC servers for allocation to the DC tenants.

1. An apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to:
obtain estimated processing requirements for a plurality of data center (DC) tenants;obtain estimated memory requirements for the DC tenants;obtain estimated storage requirements for the DC tenants; andobtain estimated network communication requirements for the DC tenants;determine a Minimum Resource Schedulable Unit (MRSU) for the tenants, the determined MRSU comprising a dynamically allocatable group of correlated processor resources, processing memory resources, storage resources, and network resources, wherein the correlated processor resources, processing memory resources, storage resources, and network resources are comprised in at least one of a plurality of DC servers, and wherein the MRSU is determined such that each DC tenant's estimated processing requirements, estimated memory requirements, estimated storage requirements, and estimated network communications requirements are met by allocation of a corresponding integer value of MRSUs; andallocate the corresponding integer value of MRSUs to each DC tenant as an MRSU allocation; and a transmitter coupled to the processor and configured to transmit the MRSU allocation to the DC servers to instruct the DC servers to implement the MRSU allocation for the DC tenants.
