Abstract

An adaptive idle detection method determines whether software defined data centers (SDDCs) in a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) environment are idle. Idleness may be quantified via a coefficient of variation (CV) against resource usage, so as to adapt the idle detection method to SDDCs with different hardware specifications and workloads. Management overhead may also be filtered out by the idle detection method, and the idle detection method may use idleness scores to further reduce overhead.
