In various embodiments, methods and systems for integrated resource allocation and loading balancing are provided. A global resource allocator receives usage information of resources in a cloud computing system. The usage information is associated with a plurality of accounts and consumer operations pairs on servers of the cloud computing system. For selected account and consumer operation pairs associated with a particular resource, allocation targets are determined and communicated to the corresponding server of the selected account and consumer operation pairs. The servers use the resource based on the allocation targets. A load balancer receives the usage information the resource and the allocation targets. The allocation targets indicate a load by the selected account and consumer operation pairs on their corresponding servers. The load balancer performs a load balancing operation to locate a server with a capacity to process the allocated target of the selected account and consumer operation pairs.
