Dynamic isolation of shared resources

摘要

Shared resources can be isolated such that abuse of the resource by one user does not significantly affect the use of that resource by another user. A combination of access and flow control can be used, wherein a control gateway or other such component sits along a path between the user and the resource, such that the user obtains connections or access to the resource through the gateway. In this way, the gateway can control aspects such as the number of concurrent threads or channels granted to a user, as well as any delay in providing these threads or channels to the resource. A closed feedback loop can provide real-time information such that adjustments can be made dynamically, preventing abuse by users while also preventing the resource allocations from being underutilized.

1. A computer-implemented method for managing usage of one or more shared resources, the computer-implemented method comprising:
under control of one or more computer systems configured with executable instructions, allocating a usage amount for a shared resource to a user of a plurality of users, the shared resource shared by at least a portion of the plurality of users; providing a set of concurrent threads to the user to enable usage of the shared resource; monitoring resource utilization of the shared resource for the user, maintaining the set of concurrent threads when the resource utilization is within a threshold usage amount of the allocated usage amount for the shared resource; and introducing a delay into each thread of the set of concurrent threads one at a time such that a finer-level adjustment can be made when the resource utilization of the shared resource satisfies one or more conditions on the allocated usage amount for at least a threshold period of time.
