Abstract

In various embodiments, methods and systems for optimizing allocation of dynamic resources are provided. A user service request resource instance is received at an allocator. The user service request resource instance is based on a dynamic resource protocol that supports generating and communicating resource instances between components in a resource allocation platform. The dynamic resource protocol also defines a set of rules for translating and representing resources as logical resource types and logical units. At a node, a node resource instance is generated and communicated, based on the dynamic resource protocol, from the node to the allocator. The node resource instance specifically comprises a resource interaction matrix that indicates dependencies between resource types. A resource allocation instance is generated at the allocator for the user service request resource instance. The resource allocation instance is communicated, such that, resource types on the node are allocated based on the resource allocation instance.
