AUTONOMIC WORKLOAD PLANNING

Torna indietro

Abstract

A method of automatically optimizing workload scheduling. Target values for workload characteristics and constraint specifications are received. Generation of a first execution plan is initiated. Initial constraint values conforming to the constraint specifications are selected. Each constraint value constrains tasks included in the workload. The first execution plan is executed, thereby determining measurements of workload characteristics. Contributions indicating differences between workload characteristic measurements and target values are determined and stored. Generation of a next execution plan is initiated. Modified constraint values conforming to the constraint specifications are selected. Changes in the workload characteristics based on the modified constraint values are evaluated. An optimal or acceptable sub-optimal solution in a space of solutions defined by the constraint specifications is determined, resulting in new values for the constraints. After replacing the initial values with the new values, the next execution plan is generated and executed.
