  • Patent number: 10171374
    Abstract: A software defined infrastructure (SDI) makes available a subset of a computer server's resources to a cloud solution or workload. Multiple subsets of resources can be combined in a SDI to provide a logical resource pool. This allows cloud administrators to create software defined infrastructures derived from the partial capacity of a collection of systems. The resources defined across the physical boundaries of a computer server can then be made available to host deployment of cloud workloads. The infrastructure resource pool can be selected upon deployment of a cloud workload.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10009292
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products to perform an operation comprising receiving, from a workload in a cloud computing environment, an abstract request to modify resources allocated to the workload, translating, by a tuning service, the abstract request to a set of requirements to fulfill the abstract request, identifying, by the tuning service, a resource configuration suitable to satisfy the set of requirements, and providing, by the tuning service, the resource configuration to fulfill the abstract request.

  • Patent number: 8527747
    Abstract: Hardware configuration management is provided. A hardware configuration manager includes a proposed new hardware configuration item for an existing production environment and its hardware configuration management software. A completed detailed setup of the management of the proposed hardware configuration item is completed before the proposed hardware configuration item is available. The detailed setup includes at least configuring policies of the proposed hardware configuration item. The hardware configuration manager also comprises a device for preventing scheduled tasks from running until a predefined period following activation of a new hardware configuration item that has the completed detailed setup and the proposed hardware configuration item is mapped thereto.
