Abstract
A method for managing storage and computational resources in a datacenter includes obtaining a power delivery limit for a rack power supply delivering power to the plurality of computing devices and measuring a resource telemetry for the first computing device and second computing device in the server rack. In response to measuring a power draw of the server rack above a power threshold value of the power delivery limit, the method includes allocating the second computing device of the server rack as a storage server to the first computing device. The method occurs at a server rack including a plurality of computing devices. A first computing device and a second computing device are in network communication with one another. Each of the first computing device and second computing device include a processor and a hardware storage device.
