Abstract

A method for managing data includes selecting a first workload, wherein the first workload is implemented on at least a resource device, obtaining a snapshot of performance metrics for the resource device, storing the snapshot of performance metrics in a performance database, making a first determination that a minimum number of previous snapshots have been obtained after a previous performance analysis, and in response to the first determination: performing a performance analysis on a set of previous snapshots of the first workload to obtain a performance report, making a second determination, based on the performance report, that the resource device does not meet standard performance, and in response to the second determination, performing a resource device remediation on the resource device.

Claims (82)

1. A method for managing data, the method comprising:

selecting a first workload, wherein the first workload is implemented on at least a resource device;

obtaining a snapshot of performance metrics for the resource device;

storing the snapshot of performance metrics in a performance database;

making a first determination that a minimum number of previous snapshots have been obtained after a previous performance analysis; and

in response to the first determination:

performing a performance analysis on a set of previous snapshots of the first workload to obtain a performance report;

making a second determination, based on the performance report, that the resource device does not meet standard performance; and

in response to the second determination, performing a resource device remediation on the resource device.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

selecting a second workload, wherein the second workload is implemented on at least a second resource device;

obtaining a second snapshot of performance metrics for the second resource device;

storing the second snapshot of performance metrics in the performance database;

making a third determination that the minimum number of previous snapshots have been obtained after a second previous performance analysis; and

in response to the third determination:

performing a second performance analysis on a second set of previous snapshots of the second workload to obtain a second performance report;

making a fourth determination, based on the second performance report, that the resource device does meet the standard performance; and

in response to the second determination, not performing the resource device remediation on the second resource device.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

after selecting the first workload, making a third determination that the first workload is at an initial phase; and

in response to the third determination, obtaining initial performance capabilities of the resource device.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein performing the resource device remediation comprises:

replacing the resource device with a second resource device; and

sending a notification to an administrative system based on the replacing.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the resource device is a processing device.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the resource device is a storage device.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the resource device is a network device.

8. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable program code, which when executed by a computer processor enables the computer processor to perform a method for managing data, the method comprising:

selecting a first workload, wherein the first workload is implemented on at least a resource device;

obtaining a snapshot of performance metrics for the resource device;

storing the snapshot of performance metrics in a performance database;

making a first determination that a minimum number of previous snapshots have been obtained after a previous performance analysis; and

in response to the first determination:

performing a performance analysis on a set of previous snapshots of the first workload to obtain a performance report;

making a second determination, based on the performance report, that the resource device does not meet standard performance; and

in response to the second determination, performing a resource device remediation on the resource device.

9. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , the method further comprising:

selecting a second workload, wherein the second workload is implemented on at least a second resource device;

obtaining a second snapshot of performance metrics for the second resource device;

storing the second snapshot of performance metrics in the performance database;

making a third determination that the minimum number of previous snapshots have been obtained after a second previous performance analysis; and

in response to the third determination:

performing a second performance analysis on a second set of previous snapshots of the second workload to obtain a second performance report;

making a fourth determination, based on the second performance report, that the resource device does meet the standard performance; and

in response to the second determination, not performing the resource device remediation on the second resource device.

10. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , the method further comprising:

after selecting the first workload, making a third determination that the first workload is at an initial phase; and

in response to the third determination, obtaining initial performance capabilities of the resource device.

11. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , wherein performing the resource device remediation comprises:

replacing the resource device with a second resource device; and

sending a notification to an administrative system based on the replacing.

12. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the resource device is a processing device.

13. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the resource device is a storage device.

14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the resource device is a network device.

15. A system, comprising:

a processor; and

memory comprising instructions, which when executed by the processor, perform a method, the method comprising:

selecting a first workload, wherein the first workload is implemented on at least a resource device;

obtaining a snapshot of performance metrics for the resource device;

storing the snapshot of performance metrics in a performance database;

making a first determination that a minimum number of previous snapshots have been obtained after a previous performance analysis; and

in response to the first determination:

performing a performance analysis on a set of previous snapshots of the first workload to obtain a performance report;

making a second determination, based on the performance report, that the resource device does not meet standard performance; and

in response to the second determination, performing a resource device remediation on the resource device.

16. The system of claim 15 , the method further comprising:

selecting a second workload, wherein the second workload is implemented on at least a second resource device;

obtaining a second snapshot of performance metrics for the second resource device;

storing the second snapshot of performance metrics in the performance database;

making a third determination that the minimum number of previous snapshots have been obtained after a second previous performance analysis; and

in response to the third determination:

performing a second performance analysis on a second set of previous snapshots of the second workload to obtain a second performance report;

making a fourth determination, based on the second performance report, that the resource device does meet the standard performance; and

in response to the second determination, not performing the resource device remediation on the second resource device.

17. The system of claim 15 , the method further comprising:

after selecting the first workload, making a third determination that the first workload is at an initial phase; and

in response to the third determination, obtaining initial performance capabilities of the resource device.

18. The system of claim 15 , wherein performing the resource device remediation comprises:

replacing the resource device with a second resource device; and

sending a notification to an administrative system based on the replacing.

19. The system of claim 15 , wherein the resource device is a processing device.

20. The system of claim 15 , wherein the resource device is a storage device.
