    Abstract: A changed block bitmap of a volume of storage is represented by a data marker that includes an offset to a first dirty block and an offset to a last dirty block. The blocks between the first and last dirty blocks are represented by contiguous clean block identifiers, contiguous dirty block identifiers, and contiguous mixed clean and dirty block identifiers. The contiguous clean block identifiers and contiguous dirty block identifiers use one or two bits to indicate identifier type. The remaining bits indicate a numerical count of contiguous clean or dirty blocks. The contiguous mixed clean and dirty block identifiers may use one bit per block to indicate change status. The data marker may be smaller than a corresponding changed block bitmap.

    Abstract: A system can determine timeseries telemetry data of a first resource utilization of a data center maintained by the system. The system can predict, from the timeseries telemetry data, a second resource utilization of the data center will occur at a future time, the second resource utilization exceeding a threshold amount of resource utilization of the data center. The system can determine, based on an amount of time available until the future time, a selected location indicative of whether to install additional hardware at a first physical location of the data center, or a second physical location of the data center, wherein an amount of time associated with installing the additional hardware at the first physical location is less than an amount of time associated with installing the additional hardware at the second physical location. The system can install the additional hardware at the selected location.
