Distributing risk of multiple realms across multiple resources based on a realm risk model
Methods, computer readable media, and devices for distributing risk of multiple realms across multiple resources based on a realm risk model are disclosed. One method may include determining a time score based on an average response, a traffic score based on an average client request rate, and a risk score based on the time score and the traffic score for a plurality of realms, distributing the plurality of realms across a fixed number of resources based on the risk scores of the plurality of realms, and in response to a change in a risk score of a realm, redistributing the plurality of realms across the fixed number of resources based on a difference between a maximum risk score and a minimum risk score.
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
distributing a plurality of realms across a fixed number of resources based on the risk scores of the plurality of realms such that:
any one realm is distributed across at least two resources that are assigned an equal portion of the risk score of the any one realm; and
a difference between a sum of risk scores assigned to any one resource and a sum of risk scores assigned to any other resource is within a risk score threshold; and
in response to a change in a risk score of a realm, redistributing the plurality of realms across the fixed number of resources such that a difference between a maximum sum of risk scores assigned to a resource and a minimum sum of risk scores assigned to a different resource is within the risk score threshold;
wherein a risk score of a realm is based on one or more selected from a group consisting of: an average response time of the realm and an average request rate of the realm.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the average response time is calculated as an integer value based on an average response time calculated over a rolling time period assigned to one of a plurality of ranges, a range having a shorter average response time indicating a smaller integer value and a range having a longer average response time indicating a larger integer value.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the average request rate is determined over a rolling multi-day period and assigned an integer value based on the average client request over the multi-day period being within one of a plurality of ranges, a range having a lower average client request rate indicating a smaller integer value and a range having a larger average client request rate indicating a larger integer value.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein a risk score of a realm is based on the average response time and the average request rate of the realm.
5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein:
a realm comprises a web site;
a resource comprises a web service; and
distributing any one realm across at least two resources comprises configuring the at least two web services of the at least two resources to respond to a corresponding amount of traffic for the web site of the any one realm.
6. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium that provides instructions that, if executed by a processor, are configurable to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
distributing a plurality of realms across a fixed number of resources based on the risk scores of the plurality of realms such that:
any one realm is distributed across at least two resources that are assigned an equal portion of the risk score of the any one realm; and
a difference between a sum of risk scores assigned to any one resource and a sum of risk scores assigned to any other resource is within a risk score threshold; and
in response to a change in a risk score of a realm, redistributing the plurality of realms across the fixed number of resources such that a difference between a maximum sum of risk scores assigned to a resource and a minimum sum of risk scores assigned to a different resource is within the risk score threshold;
wherein a risk score of a realm is based on one or more selected from a group consisting of: an average response time of the realm and an average request rate of the realm.
7. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 6 , wherein the average response time is calculated as an integer value based on an average response time calculated over a rolling time period assigned to one of a plurality of ranges, a range having a shorter average response time indicating a smaller integer value and a range having a longer average response time indicating a larger integer value.
8. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 6 , wherein the average request rate is determined over a rolling multi-day period and assigned an integer value based on the average client request over the multi-day period being within one of a plurality of ranges, a range having a lower average client request rate indicating a smaller integer value and a range having a larger average client request rate indicating a larger integer value.
9. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 6 , wherein a risk score of a realm is based on the average response time and the average request rate of the realm.
10. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 6 , wherein:
a realm comprises a web site;
a resource comprises a web service; and
distributing any one realm across at least two resources comprises configuring the at least two web services of the at least two resources to respond to a corresponding amount of traffic for the web site of the any one realm.
11. An apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium that provides instructions that, if executed by a processor, are configurable to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
distributing a plurality of realms across a fixed number of resources based on the risk scores of the plurality of realms such that:
any one realm is distributed across at least two resources that are assigned an equal portion of the risk score of the any one realm; and
a difference between a sum of risk scores assigned to any one resource and a sum of risk scores assigned to any other resource is within a risk score threshold; and
in response to a change in a risk score of a realm, redistributing the plurality of realms across the fixed number of resources such that a difference between a maximum sum of risk scores assigned to a resource and a minimum sum of risk scores assigned to a different resource is within the risk score threshold;
wherein a risk score of a realm is based on one or more selected from a group consisting of: an average response time of the realm and an average request rate of the realm.
12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the average response time is calculated as an integer value based on an average response time calculated over a rolling time period assigned to one of a plurality of ranges, a range having a shorter average response time indicating a smaller integer value and a range having a longer average response time indicating a larger integer value.
13. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the average request rate is determined over a rolling multi-day period and assigned an integer value based on the average client request over the multi-day period being within one of a plurality of ranges, a range having a lower average client request rate indicating a smaller integer value and a range having a larger average client request rate indicating a larger integer value.
14. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein a risk score of a realm is based on the average response time and the average request rate of the realm.
15. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein:
a realm comprises a web site;
a resource comprises a web service; and
distributing any one realm across at least two resources comprises configuring the at least two web services of the at least two resources to respond to a corresponding amount of traffic for the web site of the any one realm.
