    摘要: Methods and system to calculate a total container cost of each container of a data center are described. Methods compute a direct container cost of each container running in the data center based on container resource utilization and a resource utilization rate of each resource of a host. Methods also compute an indirect container cost of each container is calculated as a sum of indirect cost of each resource of the host used by the container and each resource of the host used by a monitor container that monitors each container utilization of host resources. For each container, a total container cost of the container is calculated as the sum of the direct container cost and the indirect container cost of the container. Total container costs are used to determine the cost of applications miming on the containers.
