Abstract

For each node in a plurality of nodes corresponding to a particular computer network element, the performance metric data regarding the node based on a first time interval is received. The plurality of nodes is organized in a tree structure which comprises a plurality of spine nodes, a plurality of leaf nodes, a plurality of host nodes, and a plurality of container nodes. The metric data is applied for a recursive partitioning algorithm on the plurality of nodes to generate an allocation strategy for the plurality of container nodes. The allocation strategy defines a topology of the tree structure that maximizes usage of computing resources on each node based on the first time interval.
