Abstract: A system for a reservation for a multi-machine application can include a server virtualization engine configured to create a mixed reservation of information technology resources from a cluster of hosts including a virtual machine host and a container host. The system can include a cloud management engine configured to create a multi-machine blueprint from the mixed reservation including a virtual machine template, a container image, and a definition of networking. The cloud management engine can be configured to deploy the multi-machine blueprint to provide a multi-machine application.

Abstract: The current document is directed a resource-exchange system that facilitates resource exchange and sharing among computing facilities. The currently disclosed methods and systems employ efficient, distributed-search methods and subsystems within distributed computer systems that include large numbers of geographically distributed data centers to locate resource-provider computing facilities that match the resource needs of resource-consumer computing-facilities based on attribute values associated with the needed resources, the resource providers, and the resource consumers. The resource-exchange system monitors and controls resource exchanges on behalf of participants in the resource-exchange system in order to optimize resource usage within participant data centers and computing facilities. Virtual machines that provide the execution environment for multi-tiered applications described by hierarchically organized multi-tiered-application specifications are automatically distributed across one or more resource-provider-computing-facility hosts by the resource-exchange system.

Abstract: Methods and systems for balancing resources in a virtual machine computing environment are disclosed. A server can receive data illustrating the configuration of host machines and virtual machines in client computing environment. A simulated computing environment can be created that mirrors the configuration of the client computing environment. Data relating to resource usage (e.g., processor, memory, and storage) of the host machines can be received. The resource usage can be simulated in the simulated computing environment to mirror the usage of the client computing environment. A recommendation to execute a migration of a virtual machine can be received from the simulated computing environment. Instructions to execute a migration corresponding to the recommended migration can be generated and sent to the client computing environment.

Abstract: The current document is directed a resource-exchange system that facilitates resource exchange and sharing among computing facilities. The currently disclosed methods and systems employ efficient, distributed-search-based auction methods and subsystems within distributed computer systems that include large numbers of geographically distributed data centers to locate resource-provider computing facilities that match the resource needs of resource-consumer computing facilities. Multiple security methods and subsystems are employed to prevent unauthorized access to resource-exchange-system services, to secure resource-exchange-system-participant data from unauthorized access, and to prevent hosted virtual machines and other hosted computational entities from interfering with operation of native virtual machines and other native computational entities within hosting resource-provider computing facilities.

Abstract: The current document is directed to a resource-exchange system that facilitates resource exchange and sharing among computing facilities. The currently disclosed methods and systems employ efficient, distributed-search methods and subsystems within distributed computer systems that include large numbers of geographically distributed data centers to locate resource-provider computing facilities that match the resource needs of resource-consumer computing-facilities based on attribute values associated with the needed resources, the resource providers, and the resource consumers. The resource-exchange system organizes and tracks operations related to a resource exchange using a resource-exchange context. In one implementation, each resource-exchange context represents the stages of, and information related to, placement of one or more computational-resources-consuming entities on behalf of a resource consumer within a resource-provider computing facility and execution of the one or more computational-resources-consuming entities within the resource-provider computing facility.
