Abstract
Techniques for managing resource constraints of a cloud environment are disclosed. A system receives a request to initiate a provisioning process for provisioning a first service in the cloud environment. The system determines a resource constraint associated with a resource that the first service utilizes. Based on the resource constraint, the system determines a set of candidate services that also utilize the resource as candidates for deprovisioning from the cloud environment. The system identifies respective service features of the set of candidate services and generates a ranking of the set of candidate services based on weighting metrics associated with the respective service features. Based on the ranking, the system selects a second service of the set of candidate services for deprovisioning from the cloud environment. The system deprovisions the second service to alleviate the resource constraint and then provisions the first service by executing the provisioning process.
