  • Patent number: 11956930
    Abstract: A liquid-submersible thermal management system includes a shell, a heat-generating component, a working fluid, and at least one heat-dispersing element. The shell defines an immersion chamber where the heat-generating component is located in the immersion chamber. The working fluid is positioned in the immersion chamber and at least partially surrounds the heat-generating component so the working fluid receives heat from the heat-generating component. The at least one heat-dispersing element is positioned on exterior surface of the shell to conduct heat from the shell into the heat-dispersing element.

  • Publication number: 20230418347
    Abstract: A power controller allocates input power to a datacenter between computing power for computing services, backup power, and overhead power for overhead systems. The power controller reallocates the overhead power and/or the backup power to the computing power. This may increase the overall utilization of the datacenter by allowing additional processing power of the servers to be used.

  • Publication number: 20230015908
    Abstract: Techniques of virtual machine operation management are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a technique includes determining an operating parameter to be set for executing any processes for a virtual machine with a CPU on a server upon detecting that a process corresponding to the virtual machine hosted on the server is assigned and scheduled to be executed by a processor of the CPU. The technique can then include programming the processor of the CPU assigned to execute the process according to the operating parameter in the accessed parameter record. Upon completion of programing the one of the multiple processors, the process corresponding to the virtual machine can be executed with the processor of the CPU to achieve a target performance level associated with the virtual machine.

  • Patent number: 10942760
    Abstract: Various embodiments, methods, and systems for implementing a predictive rightsizing system are provided. Predicted rightsized deployment configurations are generated for virtual machine “VM” deployments having deployment configurations that are modified to predicted rightsized deployment configurations based on a prediction engine. In operation, a VM deployment, associated with a request to deploy one or more VMs on a node, is accessed at a predictive rightsizing controller. A predicted resource utilization for the VM deployment is generated at the prediction engine and accessed at the predictive rightsizing controller. The predicted resource utilization is generated based on a prediction engine that uses past behaviors and features associated with previous VM deployments. Based on the predicted resource utilization, a predicted rightsized deployment configuration is generated for the VM deployment.

  • Publication number: 20210004250
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a type of virtual machine, which the present disclosure may refer to as a harvest virtual machine, that may allow improved utilization of physical computing resources on a cloud-computing system. First, the harvest virtual machine may be evictable. In other words, higher priority virtual machines may preempt the harvest virtual machine's access to physical computing resources. Second, the harvest virtual machine may receive access to a dynamic amount of physical computing resources during the course of its operating life. Third, the harvest virtual machine may have a minimum size (in terms of an amount of physical computing resources) and may terminate whenever the harvest virtual machine has access to an amount of physical computing resources less than the minimum size.
