1. A system of managing a shared pool of configurable computing resources, the system comprising:

  • a memory having a set of computer readable computer instructions, anda processor for executing the set of computer readable instructions, the set of computer readable instructions including;

    collecting a set of scaling factor data related to an active workload on a configuration of the shared pool of configurable computing resources, wherein the set of scaling factor data includes an actual number of transactions per time period being processed;

    ascertaining a set of workload resource data associated with the active workload, wherein the set of workload resource data includes a hardware configuration template specifying a processor requirement and a memory requirement for an expected number of transactions per time period to be processed;

    computing, by subtracting the actual number of transactions per time period from the expected number of transactions per time period, a transaction per time period difference value;

    comparing the transaction per time period difference value to a transaction per time period difference threshold to determine whether the transaction per time period difference value exceeds the transaction per time period difference threshold;

    detecting, in response to a determination that the transaction per time period difference value exceeds the transaction per time period difference threshold, a triggering event; and

    performing, in response to detecting the triggering event, a configuration action with respect to the configuration of the shared pool of configurable computing resources, wherein the configuration action includes;

    reconfiguring the configuration of the shared pool of configurable computing resources.
