Abstract

According to embodiments of the present invention, machines, systems, computer-implemented methods and computer program products for mimicking a presence notification to optimize utilization of computing resources of a system comprising a plurality of virtual components and a virtual component manager are provided. Using the virtual component manager, one or more components that are each performing functions limited to providing a presence notification may be detected. The detected one or more components may be suspended, and the presence notifications for each suspended component may be generated and transmitted by the virtual component manager. Suspending a component that is solely providing a presence notification frees up resources that may be utilized for another component performing computational work.
