Abstract
A computer program product provides program instructions that are executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform various operations. The operations may include monitoring a performance metric for a workload instance being executed by a composed system within a pool of composable resources in a composable computing system. The composed system includes a compute resource and an associated hardware resource selected from a data storage resource, a memory resource and/or a graphic processing resource. A service level agreement is identified for the workload instance, wherein the agreement includes a minimum level of the performance metric that the composed system must provide to support the workload instance. A power cap may be imposed on the compute resource, and a power cap may be imposed on the associated hardware resource by sending a power capping command to a baseboard management controller on a server including the associated hardware resource.
