  • Patent number: 11853803
    Abstract: A workload compliance governor system includes a management system coupled to a computing system. A workload compliance governor subsystem in the computing system receives a workload performance request associated with a workload, exchanges hardware compose communications with the management system to compose hardware components for the workload, and receives back an identification of hardware components. The workload compliance governor subsystem then determines that the identified hardware components satisfy hardware compliance requirements for the workload, and configures the identified hardware components in the computing system based on the software compliance requirements for the workload in order to cause those identified hardware components to provide an operating system and at least one application that operate to perform the workload.
