  • Publication number: 20230327960
    Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, a cloud service provider may operate a data center in a way that dynamically reallocates resources across nodes within the data center based on both utilization and service level agreements. In other words, the allocation of resources may be adjusted dynamically based on current conditions. The current conditions in the data center may be a function of the nature of all the current workloads. Instead of simply managing the workloads in a way to increase overall execution efficiency, the data center instead may manage the workload to achieve quality of service requirements for particular workloads according to service level agreements.

  • Patent number: 11689471
    Abstract: Technologies for contention-aware cloud compute scheduling include a number of compute nodes in a cloud computing cluster and a cloud controller. Each compute node collects performance data indicative of cache contention on the compute node, for example, cache misses per thousand instructions. Each compute node determines a contention score as a function of the performance data and stores the contention score in a cloud state database. In response to a request for a new virtual machine, the cloud controller receives contention scores for the compute nodes and selects a compute node based on the contention score. The cloud controller schedules the new virtual machine on the selected compute node. The contention score may include a contention metric and a contention score level indicative of the contention metric. The contention score level may be determined by comparing the contention metric to a number of thresholds. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 10721137
    Abstract: Systems described herein operate to improve network performance in a multi-tenant cloud computing environment. Systems can include communication circuitry and processing circuitry to generate a phase sequence matrix that indicates the identity and number of phases of a workload by measuring resources of the compute node during execution of the workload throughout a lifetime of the workload. The processing circuitry can generate a workload fingerprint that includes the phase sequence matrix and a phrase residency matrix. The phase residency matrix can indicate the fraction of execution time of the workload spent in each phase identified in the phase sequence matrix. A cloud controller can access the workload fingerprint for multiple workloads operating on multiple compute nodes in the cloud cluster to adjust workload allocations based at least on these workload fingerprints and on whether service level objectives (SLOs) are being met.

  • Publication number: 20190065261
    Abstract: Technologies for providing in-processor workload phase detection include a sled having a compute engine, which itself includes a performance monitor unit. The compute engine obtains telemetry data from the performance monitor unit. The performance monitor unit produces telemetry data indicative of performance metrics of the sled during execution of one or more workloads. The telemetry data is indicative of a resource utilization and workload performance by the sled as the workloads are executed. The compute engine determines, from a lookup table indicative of resource utilization phases, a resource utilization phase based on the obtained telemetry data. A workload fingerprint is updated based on the determined resource utilization phase, and the workload fingerprint is output. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
