Abstract
Described are techniques for selecting resources for provisioning. A usage definition, including an objective function, and first set of logical profiles based on core criteria are selected. Each of the logical profiles in the first set represents a resource set characterized by a core criteria value set that specifies values for the core criteria. A second set of resulting objective function values are determined by evaluating the objective function for each of the logical profiles in the first set. A highest ranked one of the resulting objective function values in the second set is selected having a corresponding first logical profile of the first set and a corresponding core criteria value set. A third set of resources is selected which is characterized by the corresponding core criteria value set for the first logical profile. The third set of resources is any of recommended or selected for provisioning.
