Abstract

A method includes obtaining, by one or more processor, data related to a service level agreement for a service from a provider, wherein the service includes providing, to a client, network resources from a shared pool of network resources in a computing environment. The one or more processor utilizes the data to generate input parameters and these input parameters include target parameters for the service level agreement, penalty parameters for the service level agreement, and statistical process control parameters. The one or more processor analyzes the input parameters to model risk associated with probability of failure of the service from the provider in a given computing environment and generates and based on the risk model, allocating, by the one or more processor, a portion of the network resources.
