Goals
=====
A ``Goal`` is a human readable, observable and measurable end result having
one objective to be achieved.
Here are some examples of ``Goals``:
- minimize the energy consumption
- minimize the number of compute nodes (consolidation)
- balance the workload among compute nodes
- minimize the license cost (some softwares have a licensing model which is
based on the number of sockets or cores where the software is deployed)
- find the most appropriate moment for a planned maintenance on a
given group of host (which may be an entire availability zone):
power supply replacement, cooling system replacement, hardware
modification, ...
