Dynamic Resource Allocation
Cloud compute dynamic resource allocation refers to the ability of cloud platforms to automatically adjust the allocation of computing resources, such as CPU, memory, and storage, based on real-time demand and workload.
Key Aspects of Cloud Compute Dynamic Resource Allocation:
- Auto Scaling: Automatically add or remove resources to meet changing demand.
- Elasticity: Scale resources up or down seamlessly as needed.
- Load Balancing: Distribute incoming traffic across multiple resources.
- Resource Monitoring: Continuously monitor resource utilization and performance.
- Threshold-Based Scaling: Set thresholds for automatic scaling triggers.
- Event-Based Scaling: Scale based on predefined events or schedule.
- Horizontal Scaling: Add more instances to handle increased load.
- Vertical Scaling: Increase the capacity of existing instances.
- State Preservation: Preserve state during scaling operations.
- Resource Decommissioning: Automatically remove resources when no longer needed.
- Cost Optimization: Efficiently utilize resources to manage costs.
- Resource Pools: Allocate resources from shared pools based on demand.
- Cloud Provider APIs: Use APIs to automate resource allocation processes.
- Application Performance: Ensure performance remains optimal during scaling.
- Provisioning Templates: Use templates for consistent resource provisioning.
