  • Ranking of computing equipment configurations for satisfying requirements of virtualized computing environments based on an overall performance efficiency
    Patent number: 9069890
    Abstract: Performance test data of a plurality of virtualization computing equipment configurations is collected and stored for each of a plurality of virtualization computing performance categories. At a computing device, data is received that describes requirements for virtualization computing services. Virtualization computing equipment configurations among the plurality of virtualization computing equipment configurations are identified that are capable of satisfying the requirements. For each identified virtualization computing equipment configuration, a measure of efficiency is determined for each of the plurality of performance categories based on the requirements and the virtualization computing performance test data. From the efficiency measure computed for the plurality of performance categories, a score is generated that represents the overall performance efficiency for each identified virtualization computing equipment configuration.
