Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for managing workloads in data processing systems. For example, a method computes a set of sustainability modes for a computing environment, wherein each sustainability mode comprises respective configuration boundaries defining a different amount of resources that are available for executing one or more workloads in the computing environment.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and processor-readable storage media for operating system for collecting and transferring usage data are provided herein. An example computer-implemented method includes: configuring two or more of a plurality of hardware components to perform respective data collection processes, wherein: the hardware components are associated with at least a first location, the configuring is performed by a system layer of an operating system installed on at least one of the plurality of hardware components, and a given one of the data collection processes collects usage data of the corresponding hardware component based on one or more characteristics of the corresponding hardware component; obtaining, by the operating system from the configured hardware components, the usage data collected by each of the data collection processes over a given time period; and uploading the obtained usage data to a datastore that is associated with at least a second location.
