Typically, servers are set up with a single workload and ample reserve
capacity to handle the peak demand of that workload. gWLM allows you
to combine multiple workloads with differing demand patterns on a
single server and make use of the idle capacity—when it is not
needed by your mission-critical workload.
Confidence that mission-critical workloads get the
required resources
Even with multiple workloads on a server,
you can ensure your mission-critical workload gets the resources it
needs. gWLM automatically adjusts resource allocation, making it easy
to share resources when they are plentiful, and to dedicate resources
to workloads during spikes in resource demand.
Reduced system administration costs
With
gWLM, you can combine more workloads on fewer servers, thereby reducing
administration costs.
