Customer pain points with OpenStack adoption
•
•
•
•
•
How to place workloads for optimal QoS?
How to migrate VMs as conditions change?
How to reduce power consumption?
Guarantee capacity for planned workloads?
How share resources among competing
tenants?
• How to optimally use software licenses?
• Improve automation to reduce administration
effort?
Two key limitations:
 Static allocation decisions
 Deals with initial placement
only – no ongoing optimization
15
© 2014 IBM Corporation
The need for smarter scheduling
Static, simple scheduling leads to sub-optimal allocation:
Some hypervisors under-utilized
 Waste of resources
idle capacity
 Over-provisioned infrastructure
 Excess power, cooling & facilities
 Requires administrator attention
 Risk of human error and further issues
Hypervisor
Other hypervisors over-loaded
 Poor application performance
 Application outages / downtime
 Increased support costs
 Requires administrator attention
 Risk of human error and further issues
