Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for resource physical positioning planning is provided. The method includes establishing a mapping of different computing resources and corresponding physical locations of a computing environment. Access requests that are issued to the different computing resources by different client computers communicatively coupled to the computing resources over a network disposed within the environment are monitored. Utilization of each of the computing resources by the client computing devices is computed so as to determine for a selected computing resource, one or more of the client computing devices most often requesting access to the selected computing resource. Finally, a positioning rule is applied to the selected computing resource and the one or more of the client computing devices and an optimal position is displayed for the selected computing resource according to the positioning rule.
