摘要： A method and a system for enabling resource consumption for one or more applications running in a virtual production environment within a production environment based on a testing analysis. The method and system includes generating a multi-stage virtual computing environment within a computing production environment. A software application can run in the virtual computing environment. The method and system provides access to resources in the computing production environment from the virtual computing environment. The method and system allows the software application access to the computing production environment based on a testing analysis and uses abstraction layers to control allocation of resources in the production environment.

摘要： An approach is provided in which an information handling system receives a scaling request corresponding to an application that includes multiple workloads executing on a first cloud environment and a second cloud environment. The first cloud environment is managed by a first service provider and the second cloud environment is managed by a second service provider. The information handling system evaluates the scaling request against a first set of policies corresponding to the first service provider and against a second set of policies corresponding to the second service provider. In turn, the information handling system scales, in response to the evaluating, one or more first resources on the first cloud environment and one or more second resources on the second cloud environment to fulfill the scaling request.

摘要： A method, system and computer program product for updating hardware and software components of a cloud computing environment. An administrative server monitors the usage statistics (e.g., compute utilization) of the hardware and software components of the cloud computing environment. Upon receiving user-selected thresholds for the usage statistics, which may be stored in a profile, the administrative server applies a user-provided patch to the hardware or software component whose threshold criteria has been met. Alternatively, the administrative server may automatically update the hardware and software components based on determined minimum usage points (i.e., minimum levels of usage activity) using the monitored usage statistics of the hardware and software components. In this manner, updates to the hardware and software components of the cloud computing environment can occur at optimal times, where the usage activity is low, thereby lessening the negative impact on servicing the user's computing requirements from the update.
