摘要： An embodiment of a method of controlling access to a computing resource within a shared computing environment begins with a first step of measuring performance parameters for workloads accessing the computing resource to determine a performance parameter vector for the workloads. The method continues with a second step of estimating a controller function for the computing resource by analysis of recent performance parameters and recent throughputs. The controller function comprises a mathematical operation which takes an input and provides an output. In a third step, the method compares the performance parameter vector to a reference performance parameter vector to determine an error parameter. In a fourth step, the method applies the controller function to the error parameter to determine a target throughput for each of the workloads. The method concludes with a fifth step of adjusting access to the computing resource for each work load having a throughput limit different from about the target throughput by reducing or increasing the throughput limit for the workload to about the target throughput.

摘要： According to one embodiment, a method comprises scheduling, by a weighted proportional-share scheduler, access of competing flows to a computing service in accordance with respective weights assigned to the competing flows. The method further comprises autonomously determining, by a controller, based at least in part on received performance measurement for the flows, values of the respective weights assigned to the competing flows for achieving respective performance goals desired for the competing flows. When determined by the controller that the values of the respective weights assigned to the competing flows should be changed for achieving the performance goals, the controller communicates the changed values of the respective weights to the weighted proportional-share scheduler.
