Abstract: An example recommendation device can include a memory resource storing instructions executable by a processing resource to: determine dependencies of a hardware topology, determine properties of an upgrade to be performed on the hardware topology, compare the properties of the upgrade to the determined dependencies of the hardware topology to identify potential events, and generate a recommendation for deploying the upgrade on the hardware topology based on the comparison.

Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure provide a virtual machine resource management system and method thereof. According to one implementation, a request for service provisioning is received and at least one virtual machine associated with the request is created. When a determination has been made that the allocated virtual resources have exceeded a threshold value, a virtual machine is modified based on an associated life cycle stage priority or service information.

Abstract: Allocation of physical resources is achieved by accessing consumption data for each of a plurality of application components executing in one or more virtual machines and consuming a plurality of allocated physical resources. The consumption data is indicative of consumption levels by each of the plurality of application components of each of the plurality of physical resources. Following a determination that a value for a performance metric associated with the application has crossed an associated threshold value, the consumption data is analyzed to identify a consumption level of a first of the plurality of physical resources being consumed by a first of the plurality of application components has deviated from a historical trend for that physical resource. An instruction is then communicated that when executed will cause a change in an allocation level of the first of the plurality of physical resources.
