1. A method for managing service demand load relative to infrastructure capacity in a networked computing environment, comprising:

  • receiving, by a computer processor, from a consumer, a selection of a selected service level agreement (SLA), which sets a default service level and a default price; and

    managing, by the computer processor, a service load of a networked computing environment by;

    generating, by the computer processor, a modified SLA by adjusting the default price to an adjusted price based, at least in part, upon the selected SLA and at least one of the following;

    (i) a dynamic event that has occurred in the networked computing environment, and (ii) infrastructure utilization relative to infrastructure capacity in the networked computing environment; and

    allocating, by the computer processor, a portion of at least one computing resource included in the networked computing environment to the consumer based, at least in part, on the modified SLA.
