Abstract

A system receives a request to deploy a virtual machine on a node from a plurality of nodes running a plurality of virtual machines in a cloud computing system. The system selects one of the plurality of nodes having a hard disk drive (HDD) input output operations per second (IOPS) value less than an observed HDD IOPS value for the plurality of nodes running the plurality of virtual machines. The system receives a predicted HDD IOPS value for the virtual machine and determines a new HDD IOPS value for the selected node based on the HDD IOPS value for the selected node and the predicted HDD IOPS value for the virtual machine. The system instantiates the virtual machine on the selected node when the new HDD IOPS value for the selected node is less than or equal to the observed HDD IOPS value for the plurality of nodes.
