  • Patent number: 12681747
    Abstract: A configuration manages resources for NUMA awareness for virtual machine (VM) based containers in a Kubernetes environment. The configuration initializes micro-virtual machines (VMs) within a macro-VM environment and generates a sandbox and a container for each micro-VM of the set of micro-VMs. The configuration assigns a virtual central processing unit (vCPU) to a micro-VM based on an estimated memory required by the micro-VM and an estimated available memory of the vCPU. The configuration pins the vCPU with a physical CPU based on a pod location of the physical CPU and an estimated available memory of the vCPU and an available local memory of the physical CPU. The system updates a mapping of the vCPU and the physical CPU in a resource manager and adjusts vCPU and physical CPU pairs based on the mapping of the vCPU and the physical CPU and the estimated workload for the physical CPU.

  • Publication number: 20240256360
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for resource management in a web-based container orchestrating environment. A disclosed method includes initializing a set of micro-virtual machines (VMs) within a macro-VM environment. The method each container within a micro-VM based sandbox. The method assigns a virtual central processing unit (vCPU) to a micro-VM based on an estimated memory required by the micro-VM and the estimated available memory associated with the vCPU. The method pins the vCPU with a physical CPU based on the pod location of the physical CPU and an estimated available memory associated with the vCPU and an available local memory of the physical CPU. The method maintains a state of the vCPU and the physical CPU in a resource manager.
