    Abstract: Methods, non-transitory machine readable media, and computing devices that dynamically throttle non-priority workloads to satisfy minimum throughput service level objectives (SLOs) are disclosed. With this technology, a determination is made when a number of detection intervals with a violation within a detection window exceeds a threshold, when a current one of the detection intervals is outside an observation area. The detection intervals are identified a violated based on an average throughput for priority workloads within the detection intervals exceeding a minimum throughput SLO. A throttle is then set to rate-limit non-priority workloads, when the number of violated detection intervals within the detection window exceeds the threshold. Advantageously, throughput for priority workloads is more effectively managed and utilized with this technology such that throttling oscillations are reduced, throttling is not deployed in conditions in which it would not improve throughput, and throttling is minimally deployed to maximize throughput.
