US Patent 11113117 Clustering routines for extrapolating computing resource metrics

Various examples are disclosed for using clustering routines to extrapolate metrics to other computing resources in a cluster. One or more computing devices can classify computing resources, such as servers, based on various characteristics of the computing resources. For each class of computing resource, a clustering routine can be applied to generate clusters of the computing resources. A minimal number of metrics required to be obtained from an end user can be determined as a function of a number of the clusters. If one or more of the metrics are obtained from the end user, the metrics can be extrapolated to other computing resources in the same cluster.
