The granted patent (Publication Number: US12013974B2) discloses a computer program product comprising a non-volatile computer-readable medium with program instructions for a composable computing system. The program instructions enable a processor to access a system resource database containing hardware characteristics of disaggregated computing hardware resources, identify workload requests, select hardware resources based on physical location requirements, provision computing subsystems, and assign workloads accordingly. The system ensures compliance with specific physical location characteristics, such as high-security locations, by selecting appropriate hardware resources and monitoring network traffic to prevent routing through non-compliant resources.

Furthermore, the patent details operations for storing data generated by workloads at multiple physical locations, including provisions for data redundancy and compliance verification. It also introduces the concept of physical location requirements based on the presence of technicians at specific locations, ensuring that computing subsystems include hardware resources in locations with on-site technical support. Additionally, the patent outlines a method for associating workload types with predetermined physical location requirements, allowing for efficient selection and provisioning of hardware resources for diverse workloads. Overall, the patent presents a comprehensive system for managing disaggregated computing hardware resources within a composable computing environment, optimizing performance and resource allocation based on specific physical location criteria and workload characteristics.
