Patent number: 11922198Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for assigning and associating resources in a cloud computing environment. Virtual machines in the cloud computing environment can be assigned or associated with pools corresponding to users as dedicated, standby, or preemptible machines. The various states provide users with the ability to reserve a desired level of resources while also allowing the operator of the cloud computing environment to increase resource utilization.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Bradley Gene Calder, Ju Wang, Vaman Bedekar, Sriram Sankaran, Marvin McNett, II, Pradeep Kumar Gunda, Yang Zhang, Shyam Antony, Kavitha Manivannan, Hemal Khatri

Patent number: 9372735Abstract: In various embodiments, systems and methods are presented for providing resources by way of a platform as a service in a distributed computing environment to perform a job. The system may be comprised of a number of components, such as a task machine, a task location service machine, and a high-level location service machines that in combination are useable to accomplish functions provided herein. It is contemplated that the system performs methods for providing resources by determining resources of the system, such as virtual machines, and applying auto-scaling rules to the system to scale those resources. Based on the determination of the auto-scaling rules, the resources may be allocated to achieve a desired result.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2012Date of Patent: June 21, 2016Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Bradley Gene Calder, Ju Wang, Vaman Bedekar, Sriram Sankaran, Marvin McNett, II, Pradeep Kumar Gunda, Yang Zhang, Shyam Antony, Kavitha Manivannan, Arild E Skjolsvold, Hemal Khatri

Patent number: 9170849Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for providing resources by way of a platform as a service in a distributed computing environment to perform a job. Resources of the system, job performing on the system, and schedulers of the jobs performing on the system are decoupled in a manner that allows a job to easily migrate among resources. It is contemplated that the migration of jobs from a first pool of resource to a second pool of resource is performed by the system without human intervention. The migration of a job may utilize different schedulers for the different resources. Further, it is contemplated that a pool of resources may automatically allocate additional or fewer resources in response to a migration of a job.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2012Date of Patent: October 27, 2015Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Bradley Gene Calder, Ju Wang, Vaman Bedekar, Sriram Sankaran, Marvin McNett, II, Pradeep Kumar Gunda, Yang Zhang, Shyam Antony, Kavitha Manivannan, Arild E.

Publication number: 20130179289Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for assigning resources in a cloud computing environment via a spot pricing process. The spot pricing process allows virtual machines to be assigned on a preemptible basis to pools based on bids associated with the pools. The bids can be used to determine a price for assignment of preemptible virtual machines. Preemptible virtual machines can then be assigned to pools based at least in part on the submitted bids in relation to the determined price.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2012Publication date: July 11, 2013Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORTAIONInventors: BRADLEY GENE CALDER, JU WANG, SRIRAM SANKARAN, MARVIN McNETT, II, PRADEEP KUMAR GUNDA, YANG ZHANG, SHYAM ANTONY, KAVITHA MANIVANNAN, ARILD E.

Publication number: 20130179894Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for providing resources by way of a platform as a service in a distributed computing environment to perform a job. A user may submit a work item to the system that results in a job being processed on a pool of virtual machines. The pool may be automatically established by the system in response to the work item and other information associated with the work item, the user, and/or the account. Further, it is contemplated that resources associated with the pool, such as virtual machines, may be automatically allocated based, at least in part, on information associated with the work item, the user, the account, the pool, and/or the system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2012Publication date: July 11, 2013Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: BRADLEY GENE CALDER, JU WANG, VAMAN BEDEKAR, SRIRAM SANKARAN, MARVIN McNETT, II, PRADEEP KUMAR GUNDA, YANG ZHANG, SHYAM ANTONY, KAVITHA MANIVANNAN, ARILD E.
