A service-level objective (SLO) is a key element of a service-level agreement (SLA) between a service provider and a customer. SLOs are agreed upon as a means of measuring the performance of the Service Provider and are outlined as a way of avoiding disputes between the two parties based on misunderstanding.
Systems and methods for adaptively deriving storage policy and configuration rules
InactiveUS20060236061A1Memory systemsInput/output processes for data processingFile systemService level objective
In one embodiment, the invention relates to an adaptive engine for creating provisioning policies and rules for network storage provisioning, which can be driven by service level objectives. The service level objectives can be defined for a given quality of service (“QoS”) for one or more users or user groups, file systems, databases, or applications, or classes of file systems, databases, or applications. In addition, the service level objectives can define the cost, availability, time to provision, recoverability, performance and accessibility objectives for the file system, database or application.

Automated Capacity Provisioning Method Using Historical Performance Data
ActiveUS20080059972A1Multiprogramming arrangementsTransmissionCapacity provisioningComputerized system
An automated system obtains performance data of a computer system having partitioned servers. The performance data includes a performance rating and a current measured utilization of each server, actual workload (e.g. transaction arrival rate), and actual service levels (e.g. response time or transaction processing rate). From the data, automated system normalizes a utilization value for each server over time and generates a weighted average for each and expected service levels for various times and workloads. Automated system receives a service level objective (SLO) for each server and future time and automatically determines a policy based on the weighted average normalized utilization values, past performance information, and received SLOs. The policy can include rules for provisioning required servers to meet the SLOs, a throughput for each server, and a potential service level for each server. Based on the generated policy, the system automatically provisions operation of the servers across partitions.

Computer resource management for workloads or applications based on service level objectives
ActiveUS20070234365A1Efficient managementEfficient allocationMultiprogramming arrangementsMemory systemsComputer resourcesOperational system
A resource allocation method and system for efficiently allocating compute resources. The method includes providing a workload manager and installing a workload in the computer system. During the installing, a service level goal for the workload is provided to the workload manager, and the workload manager assigns a first resource allocation for the compute resources to the workload. Then, a service level being achieved for the workload is determined in the compute resources. Based on results of the comparing, the workload manager reallocates the compute resource with the workload manager including assigning a second resource allocation for the compute resources to the workload. The workload may be made up of one or more applications running on the compute resources over multiple OS instances. The installing of the workload includes the application interfacing with the workload manager to provide the service level goal during installation.
