Abstract

See full text

Embodiments directed toward a method, system, and computer program product for placement of a plurality of virtual machines on a hardware resource are provided. The method can also include generating a user location vector for each candidate virtual machine from the plurality of candidate virtual machines by aggregating a plurality of user location metrics for each candidate virtual machine. The method can also include ranking, in response to a performance resource demanded by the plurality of candidate virtual machines being at or above a threshold of the performance resource available on the hardware resource, the candidate virtual machines as a function of an aggregate user location vector for each candidate virtual machine. The method can include selecting a subset of the candidate virtual machines for migration based on the ranking.
