Embodiments of the invention are directed to a system, method, or computer program product for an orchestration management database (OMDB). The OMDB provides for aggregation of vendor and bank data necessary for information technology infrastructure deployment, management, and federation. Utilizing cloud computing technology the OMDB provides an aggregation of all data necessary for information technology infrastructures within an entity into one useable database that dramatically simplifies the ability to do core functions and integrate external vendors and components with the entity's information technology infrastructure. In this way, the present invention modularly stores data required for an entity's information technology infrastructure and allows for easy deployment, intelligent monitoring, federation of data, and feedback associated with all aspects of the entity's information technology infrastructure.

Orchestration management of information technology

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a system, method, or computer program product for providing capacity reclamation of resources allocated to one or more virtual machines. The invention monitors resource usage of the one or more virtual machines over a predetermined period of time, compares resource usage to resource allocation; and, based on the comparison of the resource usage to the resource allocation, adjusts resource allocation based on the monitored resource usage. Comparing the resource usage may include comparing resource usage to a target upper threshold percentage of allocated resources, and if the resource usage exceeds the target upper threshold, increasing the allocated resources by a predetermined amount and comparing resource usage to a target lower threshold percentage of allocated resources, and if the resource usage is less than the target lower threshold, decreasing the allocated resources by a predetermined amount.

Capacity reclamation and resource adjustment

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a system, method, or computer program product for providing an information technology build service for building a platform in response to a service request. The invention receives a service request for the platform build from a requester, receives a plurality of platform parameters from the requester, determines whether the service request requires one or more physical machines or one or more virtual machines, and if the service request requires one or more virtual machines, initiates build of the one or more virtual machines. The invention also provisions physical and virtual storage based on received parameters, provisions physical and virtual processing power based on received parameters, and manages power of resources during the build, the managing comprising managing power ups, power downs, standbys, idles and reboots of one or more physical components being used for the build.
