Abstract
It is provided a method for managing a lifecycle of a software container announced in a distributed peer-to-peer repository, wherein the method is performed in a server. The method comprises the steps of: initialising execution of the software container in the server; setting the software container in a standby state; receiving a start message from a remote device, the start message comprising at least one start parameter for the software container; and starting a main process of the software container and applying the at least one start parameter for the main process, to progress the software container to a running state.
Claims16
A method for managing a lifecycle of a software container announced in a distributed peer-to-peer repository, the method being performed in a server, the method comprising the steps of:
- initializing execution of the software container in the server;
- setting the software container in a standby state;
- receiving a start message from a remote device, the start message comprising at least one start parameter for the software container;
- and
- starting a main process of the software container and applying the at least one start parameter for the main process, to progress the software container to a running state.
A server for managing a lifecycle of a software container announced in a distributed peer-to-peer repository, the server comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the server to:
- initialize execution of the software container in the server;
- set the software container in a standby state;
- receive a start message from a remote device, the start message comprising at least one start parameter for the software container;
- and
- start a main process of the software container and apply the at least one start parameter for the main process, to progress the software container to a running state.
A server comprising:
- means for initializing execution of a software container in the server, the software container announced in a distributed peer-to-peer repository;
- means for setting the software container in a standby state;
- means for receiving a start message from a remote device, the start message comprising at least one start parameter for the software container;
- and
- means for starting a main process of the software container and applying the at least one start parameter for the main process, to progress the software container to a running state.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program for managing a lifecycle of a software container announced in a distributed peer-to-peer repository, the computer program comprising computer program code that, when executed on a server, causes the server to:
- initialize execution of the software container in the server;
- set the software container in a standby state;
- receive a start message from a remote device, the start message comprising at least one start parameter for the software container;
- and
- start a main process of the software container and applying the at least one start parameter for the main process, to progress the software container to a running state.
