Abstract: Techniques for providing redundancy between physical and virtual entities in a hyper-converged infrastructure are disclosed. In one example, a management node may include a physical to virtual redundancy module to identify a physical entity with configuration data in a hyper-converged infrastructure as a primary entity, determine an equivalent virtual entity corresponding to the physical entity, and deploy the equivalent virtual entity in a compute node of the hyper-converged infrastructure. Further, the physical to virtual redundancy module may apply the configuration data associated with the physical entity to the deployed equivalent virtual entity and designate the equivalent virtual entity as a fail-over entity to provide redundancy in an event of failure of the physical entity.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for managing compute resources in a hyperconverged infrastructure computing environment. An example apparatus includes a resource manager table populator to populate a resource management table with information identifying workloads and a workload categorizer to categorize the workloads identified in the resource management table as needy workloads or offering workloads. The disclosed apparatus further include a workload selector to select an offering workload to lend resources to a needy workload, and a resource configurer. The resource configurer to cause a host included in the workload to spin a virtual machine or create a container, and assign the virtual machine or container to support the needy workload.
