SERVICE ALLOCATION IN A DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING PLATFORM

摘要

The techniques and arrangements described herein provide for updating services, host operating systems and other applications while satisfying update domain constraints. In some examples, one or more controller modules may maintain a data structure including a plurality of server update domains, each server update domain including a set of machines of a plurality of machines of a distributed computing system which may be concurrently updated. The one or more controller modules may allocate the plurality of instances to the plurality of machines such that a number of server update domains is minimized.
