Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for managing compute resources in a hyperconverged infrastructure computing environment. An example apparatus includes a resource manager table populator to populate a resource management table with information identifying workloads and a workload categorizer to categorize the workloads identified in the resource management table as needy workloads or offering workloads. The disclosed apparatus further include a workload selector to select an offering workload to lend resources to a needy workload, and a resource configurer. The resource configurer to cause a host included in the workload to spin a virtual machine or create a container, and assign the virtual machine or container to support the needy workload.
