Disaggregated Micro Data Center: Resource Allocation Considering Impact of Network on Performance

In a disaggregated micro data center (mu DDC), network resources have a large impact on the performance of applications. Thus, we propose a resource allocation method for mu DDC that allows it to efficiently utilize network resources. In this method, we model the impact of the allocated resources on the performance of the application. Then, we allow multiple applications to share links if all of the processes are expected to be completed within the acceptable time. To accommodate more applications, if multiple candidate resources exist, this method avoids allocating those that will be requested by applications in the future based on their importance. In this paper, we evaluate our method by simulating the allocation of continually generated resource requests and demonstrate that it can accommodate more applications without affecting the required performance.
