The Infrastructure Optimization service (watcher) provides
|
|
flexible and scalable resource optimization service for
|
|
multi-tenant OpenStack-based clouds.
|
|
|
|
Watcher provides a complete optimization loop including
|
|
everything from a metrics receiver, complex event processor
|
|
and profiler, optimization processor and an action plan
|
|
applier. This provides a robust framework to realize a wide
|
|
range of cloud optimization goals, including the reduction
|
|
of data center operating costs, increased system performance
|
|
via intelligent virtual machine migration, increased energy
|
|
efficiency—and more!
|
|
|
|
Watcher also supports a pluggable architecture by which custom
|
|
optimization algorithms, data metrics and data profilers can be
|
|
developed and inserted into the Watcher framework.
