Abstract
A policy indicative of overprovisioning and underprovisioning indicators defining rules to specify a triggering event indicating the need to reassess the provisioning of a user. Such reprovisioning occurs automatically upon occurrences of predetermined events, and may even be undetectable to the user. Since the reprovisioning can either expand or contract the resources available to a particular user, users are matched to an optimal, or 'best fit' computational resource set to correspond to the demands of the particular user. Provisioning determining a class of the user, and is indicative of an expected resource load the user imposes. The provisioner continuously monitors usage imposed by the user to aggregate a user profile indicative of provisioning demands, automatically reevaluating the class based on the aggregated user profile according to predetermined events, and selectively reassigning the provisioning environment based on the reevaluation.
