PROACTIVE ADJUSTMENT OF RESOURCE ALLOCATION TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ASSETS BASED ON PREDICTED RESOURCE UTILIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240338254 titled 'PROACTIVE ADJUSTMENT OF RESOURCE ALLOCATION TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ASSETS BASED ON PREDICTED RESOURCE UTILIZATION

The abstract describes an apparatus that uses monitoring data to predict future resource utilization by IT assets and proactively adjust resource allocation based on those predictions.

  • The processing device obtains monitoring data on resource utilization by IT assets.
  • It selects features for modeling predicted resource utilization in future time periods.
  • Predictions of resource utilization by IT assets in future time periods are generated.
  • The apparatus determines if predicted resource utilization by an IT asset differs significantly from its current resource allocation.
  • If a significant difference is detected, resource allocation is adjusted proactively for the future time period based on the predictions.
  • This adjustment is made by reallocating resources from the shared resource pool among IT assets.

Potential Applications: - IT resource management - Capacity planning for IT infrastructure - Optimization of resource allocation in IT environments

Problems Solved: - Inefficient resource allocation - Lack of proactive resource management - Inaccurate capacity planning

Benefits: - Improved resource utilization - Cost savings through optimized resource allocation - Enhanced performance of IT assets

Commercial Applications: Title: "Predictive Resource Allocation for IT Asset Management" This technology can be used by IT departments in various industries to optimize resource allocation, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. It has implications for cloud computing providers, data centers, and large enterprises with complex IT infrastructures.

Questions about Predictive Resource Allocation for IT Asset Management: 1. How does this technology differ from traditional resource allocation methods? This technology differs by using predictive modeling to anticipate future resource needs and adjust allocations proactively.

2. What are the key benefits of proactive resource allocation in IT asset management? Proactive resource allocation helps prevent resource shortages, optimize performance, and reduce unnecessary costs.


Original Abstract Submitted

an apparatus comprises a processing device configured to obtain monitoring data characterizing resource utilization by information technology (it) assets having resources assigned from a shared resource pool, to select features for use in modeling predicted resource utilization by the it assets in future time periods, to generate predictions of resource utilization by the it assets in each of the future time periods, and to determine whether the predicted resource utilization by a given it asset exhibits at least a threshold difference from its current resource allocation. the processing device is further configured, response to the determination, to proactively adjust resource allocation to the given it asset from the shared resource pool for the given future time period based at least in part on the predicted resource utilization, for the given future time period, by other ones of the it assets having resources assigned from the shared resource pool.
