Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention relate to a system and method for allocating resources to applications. One embodiment of the present invention may include identifying a plurality of applications and a plurality of application components, and determining available resources of a networked computing system for potentially storing the applications and application components. Additionally, the embodiment may include determining required resources for each application component, assigning a subset of available resources for each application component based on the required resources of the application component and the available resources. The embodiment may also include associating the application components with the subsets of available resources and storing more than one application component of the plurality of application components on a single available resource.
