KNOWLEDGE GRAPH FOR DETERMINING A RESOURCE VENDOR FROM WHICH TO LEASE RESOURCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17900270 titled 'KNOWLEDGE GRAPH FOR DETERMINING A RESOURCE VENDOR FROM WHICH TO LEASE RESOURCES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a computer-implemented method for building a knowledge graph of resource vendors, identifying resources in short supply in a host system, and leasing these resources from a vendor that satisfies policy prerequisites of the host system.

  • Knowledge graph of resource vendors is built
  • Resources in short supply in a host system are identified
  • Matching algorithm determines a vendor to lease identified resources from
  • Lease is issued from the vendor to the host system
    • Potential Applications:**

- Resource management in cloud computing environments - Optimizing resource allocation in data centers - Improving efficiency in supply chain management

    • Problems Solved:**

- Identifying and addressing shortages of critical resources - Ensuring policy compliance in resource leasing - Streamlining resource procurement processes

    • Benefits:**

- Increased availability of resources in host systems - Cost-effective resource leasing solutions - Enhanced resource allocation efficiency


Original Abstract Submitted

A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes building a knowledge graph of resource vendors. The method further includes identifying resources that are in relatively short supply in a host system, and determining, using a matching algorithm, a first of the resource vendors in the knowledge graph from which to temporarily lease the identified resources to the host system. The first resource vendor includes the identified resources and satisfies policy prerequisites of the host system. A lease is caused to be issued, from the first resource vendor to the host system, for the identified resources. A computer program product according to another embodiment includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The program instructions are readable and/or executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform the foregoing method.
