Machines, systems and methods for managing resources allocated in a virtualized computing network are provided. The method comprises monitoring resource usage by a first host, wherein the first host, in addition to the first host's dedicated resources, has access to a first set of sharable resources, and wherein the second host, in addition to the second host's dedicated resources, has access to a second set of sharable resources; determining whether the second host has excess resource capacity in the second host's dedicated and sharable resources, in response to determining that resource usage of the first host in the first host's dedicated and sharable resources has exceeded a resource usage threshold; and reallocating one or more resources in the second set of sharable resources from the second host to the first host, in response to determining that the second host has excess resource capacity.

Systems and methods for scheduling events in a virtualized computing environment are provided. In one embodiment, the method comprises scheduling one or more events in a first event queue implemented in a computing environment, in response to determining that number of events in the first event queue is greater than a first threshold value, wherein the first event queue comprises a first set of events received for purpose of scheduling, wherein said first set of events remain unscheduled; mapping the one or more events in the first event queue to one or more server resources in a virtualized computing environment; receiving a second set of events included in a second event queue, wherein one more events in the second set of event are defined as having a higher priority than one or more events in the first event queue that have or have not yet been scheduled.
