Abstract

A distributed storage resource management in a hyper converged infrastructure is created. The system accesses a virtualized infrastructure comprising a plurality of host machines, each of said plurality of host machines having resources, the resources comprising: a central processing unit (CPU), a memory, and a storage, each of the plurality of host machines communicatively coupled with one or more virtual machines. The resources in each of the host machines are disaggregated. The resources are aggregated based on a nature of the resource into a common pool of shared resources. A request is received for a workload application having a resource requirement. The resource requirement of the workload application is matched with resources in the common pool of shared resources. The matched resources in the common pool of shared resources are assigned to the workload application.
