The functioning of modern applications in cloud-centers is characterized by a huge variety of computational workloads generated. This causes uneven workload distribution and as a result leads to ineffective utilization of cloud-centers’ hardware. The proposed article addresses the possible ways to solve this issue and demonstrates that it is a matter of necessity to optimize cloud-centers’ hardware utilization. As one of the possible ways to solve the problem of the inefficient resource utilization in heterogeneous cloud-environments an algorithm of dynamic re-allocation of virtual resources is suggested.
