Abstract

A device receives, from a cloud computing environment, cloud instance information associated with cloud instances in the cloud computing environment, and processes the cloud instance information, with a machine learning model, to determine containers for one or more of the cloud instances and whether cloud instances should be removed from the cloud computing environment. The device causes a first subset of the cloud instances to be removed from the cloud computing environment, based on determining which of the cloud instances should be removed, and causes the containers to be created for a second subset of the cloud instances based on determining the containers. The device receives, from the cloud computing environment, cloud container information associated with the containers created in the cloud computing environment, and causes one or more of the containers to be scaled based on the cloud container information.

Dependent claims

A device, comprising:

one or more memories;
and
one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, to:
receive, from a cloud computing environment, cloud instance information associated with cloud instances in the cloud computing environment;
process the cloud instance information, with a machine learning model, to determine:
similarities between the cloud instances in the cloud computing environment,
containers to be created for one or more of the cloud instances, and
cloud instances to be removed from the cloud computing environment;
cause removal of a first subset of the cloud instances from the cloud computing environment, based on determining the cloud instances to be removed from the cloud computing environment;
cause the determined containers to be created for a second subset of the cloud instances, different than the first subset of the cloud instances, based on determining the determined containers to be created for the one or more of the cloud instances and the similarities between the cloud instances;
cause the determined containers to execute at least one application instance,
the at least one application instance providing services that correspond to services that were executed by the second subset of the cloud instances;
receive, from the cloud computing environment, cloud container information associated with the determined containers;
and
cause one or more of the determined containers to be scaled based on the cloud container information.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the one or more processors to:
receive, from a cloud computing environment, cloud instance information associated with cloud instances in the cloud computing environment;
process the cloud instance information to determine:
similarities between the cloud instances in the cloud computing environment,
containers to be created for one or more of the cloud instances, and
cloud instances to remove from the cloud computing environment;
cause removal of a first subset of the cloud instances from the cloud computing environment based on determining the cloud instances to remove from the cloud computing environment;
cause the determined containers to be created for a second subset of the cloud instances, different than the first subset of the cloud instances, based on determining the determined containers to be created for the one or more of the cloud instances and the similarities between the cloud instances;
cause the determined containers to execute at least one application instance,
the at least one application instance providing services that correspond to services that were executed by the second subset of the cloud instances;
determine images associated with the second subset of the cloud instances;
and
periodically cause the images to be implemented with the at least one application instance.

A method, comprising:

receiving, by a device and from a cloud computing environment, cloud instance information associated with cloud instances in the cloud computing environment;
processing, by the device, the cloud instance information to:
determine similarities between the cloud instances in the cloud computing environment,
determine containers to be created for one or more of the cloud instances, and
cloud instances to remove from the cloud computing environment;
causing, by the device, removal of a first subset of the cloud instances from the cloud computing environment based on determining the cloud instances to remove from the cloud computing environment;
causing, by the device, the determined containers to be created for a second subset of the cloud instances, different than the first subset of the cloud instances, based on determining the determined containers to be created for the one or more of the cloud instances and the similarities between the cloud instances;
causing, by the device, the determined containers to execute at least one application instance,
the at least one application instance providing services that correspond to services that were executed by the second subset of the cloud instances;
receiving, by the device and from the cloud computing environment, information indicating that a particular container, of the determined containers, failed;
and
causing, by the device, a new container to be created for the particular container based on receiving the information indicating that the particular container failed.
