Abstract: Techniques for virtual workload deployment based on computing resource hardware load and associated network hardware load. For each of a plurality of computing resources within one or more data centers onto which a virtual workload can be deployed, a computing resource hardware load of the respective computing resource is determined. Network topology information is maintained for at least one network fabric of the one or more data centers, and an associated network hardware load of a network device communicatively connected to the respective computing resource is determined. Embodiments automatically select one or more computing resources. The virtual workload is deployed onto the automatically selected one or more computing resources.

Abstract: Embodiments include determining computing resources within one or more data centers onto which a virtual workload can be deployed. Network state data is determined for a plurality of network resources within a network fabric of a data center. For each of the plurality of computing resources, embodiments determine a respective suitability value describing a fitness of the respective physical server for deploying at least a portion of the virtual workload. Such a determination includes determining a respective at least one of the plurality of network resources within the at least one network fabric corresponding to the respective computing resource and determining a current workload of the at least one network resource, based on the network state data. Upon selecting one or more computing resources of the plurality of computing resources based on the determined suitability values, embodiments deploy the virtual workload onto the selected one or more computing resources.
