Optimizing dynamical resource allocations for cache-friendly workloads in disaggregated data centers

Abstract:

Embodiments for optimizing dynamic resource allocations in a disaggregated computing environment. A new workload is assigned to a subset of a plurality of processors, the subset of processors assigned a subset of a plurality of cache devices. A determination is made that the new workload is categorized as a cache-friendly workload having a memory need which can be met primarily by the subset of cache devices by identifying that underlying data necessitated by the new workload resides primarily within the subset of cache devices. Pursuant to determining the new workload is the cache-friendly workload, a cache related action is performed to increase performance of the new workload executed by the subset of processors and commensurately executes additional workloads performed by other ones of the plurality of processors within the disaggregated computing environment.
