摘要 |
An embodiment of the invention provides an apparatus and method for classifying a workload of a computing entity. In an embodiment, the computing entity samples a plurality of values for a plurality of parameters of the workload. Based on the plurality of values of each parameter, the computing entity determines a parameter from the plurality of parameters that the computing entity's response time is dependent on. Here, the computing entity's response time is indicative of a time required by the computing entity to respond to a service request from the workload. Further, based on the identified significant parameter, the computing entity classifies the workload of the computing entity by selecting a workload classification from a plurality of predefined workload classifications. |

1. A method of classifying a workload of a computing entity, the method comprising:
sampling, by a processing device, a plurality of values for each of a plurality of parameters of the workload; based on the plurality of values of each parameter, determining, by the processing device, a particular parameter from the plurality of parameters that a response time of the computing entity is dependent on, the response time being indicative of a time required for the computing entity to respond to a service request from the workload; and based on the identified particular parameter, classifying the workload of the computing entity by selecting a workload classification from a plurality of predefined workload classifications. |
