US Patent 11868802 Application lifecycle management based on real-time resource usage

Application lifecycle management based on real-time resource usage. A first plurality of resource values that quantify real-time computing resources used by a first instance of an application is determined at a first point in time. Based on the first plurality of resource values, one or more utilization values are stored in a profile that corresponds to the application. Subsequent to storing the one or more utilization values in the profile, it is determined that a second instance of the application is to be initiated. The profile is accessed, and the second instance of the application is caused to be initiated on a first computing device utilizing the one or more utilization values identified in the profile.
