Computing component and environment mobility

A service for moving computing processes without loss of service, comprising:

• deploying a computational device infrastructure configured to monitor a plurality of thermal characteristics, each of the plurality of thermal characteristics associated with a one of a deployed plurality of powered components supporting a computing infrastructure;
• the computational device infrastructure applying a thermal characteristic rule set comprising a threshold to the monitored thermal characteristics;
• and
• in response to an association of a first at least one powered component with a monitored thermal characteristic correlating with the applied threshold, moving a computing process executing on the first at least one powered component to a second of the plurality of powered components;
• wherein a one of the monitored plurality of thermal characteristics associated with the second powered component does not correlate with the threshold;
• and
• wherein the moving is in real-time and without causing an interruption of service to an end user using the moved process.
