Abstract
The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to efficiently allocate computing resources for various computing workloads through a shared peak resource usage prediction. To achieve this, a predictive model analyzes a historical dataset defining resource usage of a computing environment for a past timeframe, and calculates a peak environment resource usage for a future or current timeframe. In addition, the predictive model estimates a peak number of computing workloads for the computing environment. Using the peak resource usage and/or the peak number of computing workloads, the system derives resource requests for allocating computing resources to a plurality of computing workloads. The computing workloads are subsequently assigned to computing nodes within the computing environment for execution. Furthermore, computing workloads within a computing node are configured to share computing resources to accommodate sudden surges in demand. In this way, the system can reduce computing resource wastage for computing environments.
