Abstract
Through an online process, a user in an organization may request a reservation of some of the organization's cloud computing resources. Usage of the allocated resources is monitored. If usage falls below a configurable threshold level, an alert may be generated to provide notification of inefficient resource use. The allocated resources or a portion of the allocated resources may be reclaimed so that the resource can be made available to other users in the organization.
