Abstract
Server resources in a data center are disaggregated into shared server resource pools. Servers are constructed dynamically, on-demand and based on workload requirements and a tenant's resiliency requirements (e.g., as specified in an SLA), by allocating from these resource pools. A disaggregated compute system of this type keeps track of resources that are available in the shared server resource pools, and it manages those resources based on that information and the health of the resources. As a workload is processed by the server entity and component resources fail, the server entity composition is changed, e.g. by allocating other resources to the server entity, or by transitioning to other server entities, to ensure that a resiliency requirement is maintained.
