RESOURCE-AWARE SYSTEM, METHOD AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR MANAGING REQUEST TRAFFIC BASED ON A MANAGEMENT POLICY

摘要

Under the present invention, the performance of a set of system resources is monitored in response to incoming request traffic. When a system resource is approaching an overload condition, a corrective action is identified and implemented. Overload thresholds for each system resource and appropriate corrective actions are contained within a management policy. Based on a performance history of the corrective actions, the management policy can be changed/revised.
