Problems solved by technology

However, there may be challenges in current solutions that typically rely on manually shutting down processes, applications and / or VMs
Also, this approach may require the user to manually re-enable the process, application, and / or VM when the VM is needed later

Abstract

An approach for activity-based virtual machine (VM) availability in a networked computing environment (e.g., a cloud computing environment) is provided. In a typical embodiment, a system provided under the present approach monitors and logs network traffic and performs network packet inspections. Based on the contents of the network packets, the system may determine which applications / processes on particular VMs that are associated with the traffic. Users of this system may configure rules and thresholds. Regardless, if an availability threshold is not met as compared to a volume of network traffic, certain network traffic disablement actions can be taken. Users may also configure those conditions that will result in re-enablement of the network and / or processes that were disabled.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to virtual machine (VM) availability. In particular, the present disclosure relates to activity-based VM availability control in a networked computing environment (eg, a cloud computing environment). Background technique [0002] A networked computing environment (e.g., a cloud computing environment) is an enhancement to a processor grid environment whereby multiple grids and other computing resources can also be enhanced by one or more additional layers of abstraction (e.g., a cloud layer) such that Distributed devices appear to end consumers as a single seamless resource pool. These resources may include such things as physical or logical computing engines, servers and devices, device memory and storage devices, and so on. [0003] Cloud service providers can choose to have segmented pricing for granular categories (for example, if a consumer creates a VM in the cloud environment), not only can the user be c...
