Abstract: Techniques for observing network configuration(s) and/or pattern(s) for coordinating workload placement and resource/infrastructure allocation according to present network and/or workload conditions are described herein. A controller of a network may receive telemetry data from resources, associated with a workload orchestrator, that are allocated to host workloads in the network. The controller may also receive workload rules indicative of configuration data associated with a workload that is to be provisioned in the network. Using the telemetry data and the workload rules, the controller may determine specific resources in specific workload environment(s) of the network are most favorable to host the workload.
