  • Systems and methods for managing resources in resource-consuming computational systems and processes
    Patent number: 11650853
    Abstract: Various approaches for allocating resources to multiple virtual machines include identifying multiple reserved instances, each specifying a quantity of one or more computational resources compatible with the feasible resource template for the VMs; computationally generating, for each of the VMs, an instance-ranking list indicating a ranking order of the reserved instances having templates feasible for the VM; computationally generating, for each of the reserved instances, a VM-ranking list indicating a ranking order of the VMs to which the resources specified by the reserved instance may be allocated; and based at least in part on the instance-ranking list and the VM-ranking list, computationally mapping each of the VMs to one of the reserved instances.
    Type: Grant
