摘要： A system and method of reserving resources in a compute environment are disclosed. The method embodiment comprises receiving a request for resources within a computer environment, determining at least one completion time associated with at least one resource type required by the request, and reserving resources within the computer environment based on the determine of at least the completion time. A scaled wall clock time on a per resource basis may also be used to determine what resources to reserve. The system may determine whether to perform a start time analysis or a completion time analysis or a hybrid analysis in the process of generating a co-allocation map between a first type of resource and a second type of resource in preparation for reserving resources according to the generated co-allocation map.

摘要： System, method, and tangible computer-readable storage media are disclosed for providing a brokering service for compute resources. The method includes, at a brokering service, polling a group of separately administered compute environments to identify resource capabilities and information, each compute resource environment including the group of managed nodes for processing workload, receiving a request for compute resources at the brokering service system, the request for compute resources being associated with a service level agreement (SLA) and based on the resource capabilities across the group of compute resource environments, selecting compute resources in one or more of the group of compute resource environments. The brokering service system receives workload associated with the request and communicates the workload to the selected resources for processing. The brokering services system can aggregate resources for multiple cloud service providers and act as an advocate for or a guarantor of the SLA associated with the workload.

摘要： The invention relates to systems, methods and computer-readable media for controlling access to compute resources in a compute environment such as a cluster or a grid. The method of providing conditional access to a compute environment comprises associating a required service level threshold with a compute environment, associating a service level with a requestor, receiving a request for access to the compute environment from the requestor; and, if the service level of the requestor meets the specified service level threshold, then allowing access to the compute resources. The threshold-based access may be enforced by reservations, policies or some other method.
