Context
At iWeb Technologies, we send a little technical test to those applying for a job. I decided to take the challenge myself and write it in TDD to learn it and practice it.
Technical Test Description
Write a simple application that distributes virtual machines on servers in a datacenter. The application can be written in any language.
Specifications
- A server have space to host virtual machines (pre-defined capacity)
- When hosted on a server, a virtual machine occupy a certain amount of space (size)
- The number of virtual machines a server can host vary with the capacity of the server and the size of the virtual machines
- The virtual machines must installed on a server in the order they are received as input
- The utilization percentage of each server must be as evenly distributed as possible in the datacenter
- Servers cannot host virtual machines beyond their capacity
Example Input
As input, the application must receive some servers and some virtual machines:
{
"servers": [{
"id": "server1",
"capacity": 4
}, {
"id": "server2",
"capacity": 6
}],
"virtualMachines": [{
"id": "VM1",
"size": 1
}, {
"id": "VM2",
"size": 4
}, {
"id": "VM3",
"size": 2
}]
}
Example Output
As output, the application has distributed the virtual machines on the available servers:
{
"servers": [{
"id": "server1",
"capacity": 4,
"usePercentage": 75,
"virtualMachines": [{
"id": "VM1",
"size": 1
}, {
"id": "VM3",
"size": 2
}]
}, {
"id": "server2",
"capacity": 6,
"usePercentage": 67,
"virtualMachines": [{
"id": "VM2",
"size": 4
}]
}]
}
Running the program
To run the tests:
mvn clean test
To run the program:
