In some examples, a method can involve collecting resource consumption data for resource consumer objects associated with hosts in a computing environment. The method can involve identifying, for each respective host, a respective set of resource consumer objects at the host and, based on the resource consumption data, determining a projected resource consumption history for each host, the projected resource consumption history being based on a combined resource consumption, over a period of time, associated with the respective set of resource consumer objects currently hosted a the host. The method can involve calculating a projected resource availability for each host based on a respective resource capability of the host and the projected resource consumption history for the host, and selecting a particular host for a resource consumer object based on the projected resource availability of each host.
