Abstract
A system for providing application redeployment mappings using filtered resource usage data includes a meter agent and an optimizer. The meter agent may be configured to collect measurements quantifying usage of one or more source resources by one or more applications. In response to a specification of a set of constraints associated with a deployment of one or more applications to a target execution environment, the optimizer may be configured to obtain a filtered aggregation of the measurements collected by the meter agent, and use the filtered aggregation to generate a mapping of at least one application to one or more target resources of the target execution environment in accordance with the set of constraints. The optimizer may implement a mathematical model to generate the mapping based on a determination of an optimum value of an objective function.
