Abstract

The present disclosure involves systems and computer implemented methods for implementing a resource allocation. One example method is performed by identifying a resource allocation associated with the device hub, the resource allocation defining an expected resource usage associated with a connected device and a non-connected device. Resource usage information associated with the connected device is monitored, where usage information associated with the non-connected device is calculated based on a difference between a total resource usage identified by the device hub and the resource usage information associated with the connected device. The resource usage information is compared to the resource allocation, and in response to the comparison and a determination that the non-connected device exceeded the resource allocation associated with the non-connected device, an adjustment in operation for the connected device associated with the device hub is calculated. An instruction is transmitted to the connected device to perform the calculated adjustment.
