Abstract: Systems, methods, and media for method for managing requests for computing resources. Methods may include dynamically throttling requests for computing resources generated by one or more tenants within a multi-tenant system, such as a cloud. In some embodiments, the present technology may dynamically throttle I/O operations for a physical storage media that is accessible by the tenants of the cloud. The present technology may dynamically throttle I/O operations to ensure fair access to the physical storage media for each tenant within the cloud.

Abstract: Systems and method for providing a distributed service configuration framework are provided herein. In some instances, methods may include facilitating an application within a cloud computing system, facilitating a plurality of services of the application, the plurality of services being of a same type, deploying an instance within a given service, and automatically configuring the instance using configuration information obtained by a configuration agent, the configuration agent being associated with the instance. Each instance is associated with its own configuration agent.
