Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for automated and dynamic compute resource allocation in an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) environment. A system may determine a load threshold value corresponding to a maximum throughput of allocated resources and an active load of processing occurring at those resources. The threshold and load are compared to determine if throttling is occurring at the allocated resources. A specified range of permissible resource allocations is determined. Based on the range of permissible resource allocations, the threshold load value and the active load, the allocated resources may be modified. The modification may be a ramp-up of allocated resources to handle a throttling load or a ramp-down to reduce inefficient resource utilization and processing overhead. The ramp-up or ramp-down may be performed in periodic increments over periodic increments of time to reduce system stress and handle dynamically changing loads. A recommended permissible allocation range may be suggested.
