Techniques that facilitate hybrid memory access frequency are provided. In one example, a system stores access frequency data for storage class memory and volatile memory in a translation lookaside buffer. The access frequency data is indicative of a frequency of access to the storage class memory and the volatile memory. The system also determines whether to store data in the storage class memory or the volatile memory based on the access frequency data stored in the translation lookaside buffer.

Hybrid memory access frequency

Embodiments for managing bare metal networking in a cloud computing environment. A network communication module that receives a configuration instruction over a direct network link from an external remote management device on a network endpoint may be initialized.

Managing bare metal networking in a cloud computing environment

A method for providing dynamic resizing of at least one virtual machine in a cloud infrastructure includes steps of: obtaining a measure of resource usage for the virtual machine and/or application performance of an application running on the virtual machine; determining, as a function of prescribed rules relating to resource usage and the measure of resource usage and/or application performance, whether the virtual machine requires resizing; and resizing the virtual machine to dynamically change resource availability for the virtual machine so as to maintain resource usage and/or application performance within prescribed limits defined by the prescribed rules.

Dynamic virtual machine resizing in a cloud computing infrastructure

A method includes receiving a write request on at least one storage device; detecting a predetermined block of data within the write request; setting a first short code within a translation table if the predetermined block of data is detected; and writing the write request into the at least one storage device if the predetermined block of data is not detected.

Storage device control

System and method and computer program product implemented for a cloud computing infrastructure that allows a hypervisor to optimize resource allocation in a cloud computing environment by exploiting the application-level performance, O/S system performance, and hypervisor performance information through a reliable and efficient channel.
