Abstract:
A cloud capacity system enables calculation and tracking of cloud capacity metrics for data center pods. The system includes a “Cloud Capacity Snapshot” table having a number of different cloud capacity columns; a “Cloud Capacity Query” table that stores a respective, customizable query for each of the cloud capacity columns defining criteria for selecting and combining data to calculate the corresponding cloud capacity metric value; and a “Cloud Capacity URLs” table that stores cloud capacity universal resource locator (URLs). Each cloud capacity URL embodies or encodes a respective cloud capacity query of the “Cloud Capacity Query” table for a given combination of a particular cloud capacity column and a particular pod in the “Cloud Capacity Snapshot” table. As such, by executing the queries encoded in the “Cloud Capacity URLs” table, each cloud capacity field of the “Cloud Capacity Snapshot” table is populated with the corresponding cloud capacity metric value.
