Patents by Inventor Nadav Yakar

Nadav Yakar has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10243815
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to methods and systems to evaluate resource allocation costs of a data center. Methods and systems compute resource allocation costs of a cloud computing industry to obtain industry benchmarks that are compared with the resource allocation costs of the data center. The comparisons enable IT managers to objectively identify computational resource shortages, resource over investments, and where future investment in computational resources should be made for the data center.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 29, 2015
    Date of Patent: March 26, 2019
    Assignee: VMWARE, INC.
    Inventors: Lior Shapsa, Mayan Negbi, Uri Kochavi, Nadav Yakar, Elad Swisa, Yochai Uliel, Guy Ginzburg, Yardena Meymann, Ram Janovski
  • Patent number: 10147110
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to methods and systems to evaluate the performance of a virtual data center (“VDC”) running in a data center by comparing costs of cost drivers and VDC costs with cloud computing industry benchmarks. Methods collect costs of cost drivers and total VDC costs of a cloud computing industry. Cost driver industry benchmarks of the cloud computing industry are computed from the costs of the cost drivers and compared costs of cost drivers of a data center to determine which cost drivers of the data center are unacceptable. Methods also include determining a monetary impact of the cost drivers of the data center based the cost driver industry benchmarks and the total VDC costs of the cloud computing industry.
