Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for rack nesting in virtualized server systems. An example apparatus includes a resource discoverer to identify resources to be allocated to the nested rack based on a policy indicative of one or more physical racks from which to identify the resources, and determine candidate resources from the resources to be allocated to the nested rack based on a capacity parameter indicative of a quantity of the resources available to be allocated to the nested rack, the candidate resources to have first hypervisors, and a nested rack controller to generate the nested rack by deploying second hypervisors on the first hypervisors, the second hypervisors to facilitate communication between the candidate resources and one or more virtual machines on the second hypervisors, the nested rack to execute one or more computing tasks based on the communication.
