METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ROBUST CLOUD INSTANCE LAUNCHING

摘要

A method and system for receiving a request to deploy virtual machine instances on a first cloud and determining whether the deployment has been prepared for launch on cloud. Upon determining that the deployment has not been prepared for launch, aborting a launch of the deployment is initiated. Upon determining that the deployment has been prepared for launch, a launch of the deployment on the cloud is initiated. Upon determining that the launch of at least one of the virtual machine instances has failed to launch, a re-launch of the at least one instance that has failed to launch is initiated or a rollback of the deployment is initiated.
