Abstract
In a computing environment, a set of executing processes each having associated resources are provided. Aggregate resources for the computing environment include multiple different types of resources. A utilization level for each of the resources within the computing environment is evaluated to determine an unconsumed capacity for each of the resources below a utilization threshold. The utilization threshold is resource-dependent. An indication of at least a portion of unconsumed capacity for each of the resources below the utilization threshold is gathered. The unconsumed portion for each of the resources below the utilization threshold is exposed for consumption by other executing processes.
