An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented process for a centrally controlled proximity based software installation receives a request to install a software package, sends a list of machines associated with the received request to a rules engine and generates a set of proximity groups using the list of machines. The computer-implemented process uploads the software package of the received request to a selected machine within a proximity group of the set of proximity groups, instructs the selected machine to install the software package and instructs the remaining machines associated with the proximity group of the selected machine to download the software package from the selected machine and to install the software package. Responsive to a determination that no more requests exist, the computer-implemented process reports to a central installer. |
