Abstract: Using interaction profiling data and deployment state data of a software application, an observability module configuration plan is generated, the configuration plan comprising an event to be observed and an observability parameter. Using infrastructure state estimation data of the infrastructure on which the software application is executing, the observability module configuration plan is adjusted, the adjusting resulting in an adjusted reconfiguration plan, the adjusted reconfiguration plan comprising a second event to be observed, the second event associated with a node failure within the infrastructure. A set of observability modules is reconfigured according to the adjusted reconfiguration plan, the reconfiguring comprising causing an observability module in the set of observability modules to be activated to monitor the event.

Abstract: A computer program product comprises a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The program instructions are executable by one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to collect, at a network interface controller associated with a first node, a set of usage metrics from one or more other network interface controllers respectively associated with one or more other nodes. Further, the program instructions are executable by one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to select, at the network interface controller associated with the first node, one of the one or more other nodes to allocate a virtualized workload for execution, wherein the selection utilizes at least a portion of the set of usage metrics collected from each of the one or more other network interface controllers.
