identifying a plurality of asset resources within a data center;
selecting a workload for allocation of asset resources;
maintaining an inventory of available asset resources from the asset resources of the plurality of asset resources;
determining which asset resources of the plurality of asset resources to allocate to the workload, determination of which asset resources of the plurality of asset resources to allocate taking into account the inventory of the available asset resources; and,
performing a data center asset allocation operation, the data center asset allocation operation allocating resources the workload based upon the determining.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor are further configured for:
presenting a workload optimization user interface, the workload optimization user interface enabling optimization of allocation of asset resources to the workload.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor are further configured for:
performing an asset choreography operation, the asset choreography operation tracking use of the certain asset resources to determine whether the certain asset resources are underutilized.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein:
using the certain asset resources that underutilized when maintaining the inventory of available asset resources.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor are further configured for:
performing a workload orchestration operation, the workload orchestration operation allocating an underutilized asset resource to the workload.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein:
the workload orchestration operation allocates the underutilized asset resource based upon a capacity of the underutilized asset resource.
13. A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the computer program code comprising computer executable instructions configured for:
identifying a plurality of asset resources within a data center;
selecting a workload for allocation of asset resources;
maintaining an inventory of available asset resources from the asset resources of the plurality of asset resources;
determining which asset resources of the plurality of asset resources to allocate to the workload, determination of which asset resources of the plurality of asset resources to allocate taking into account the inventory of the available asset resources; and,
performing a data center asset allocation operation, the data center asset allocation operation allocating resources the workload based upon the determining.
14. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor are further configured for:
presenting a workload optimization user interface, the workload optimization user interface enabling optimization of allocation of asset resources to the workload.
15. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , wherein the instructions executable by the processor are further configured for:
performing an asset choreography operation, the asset choreography operation tracking use of the certain asset resources to determine whether the certain asset resources are underutilized.
