Abstract
A method of migrating a container includes: monitoring, by a processor, a plurality of applications executing on a system to generate monitored data, where each application includes at least one container; building, by the processor, a behavior model using the monitored data; selecting, by the processor, a destination data-center among a plurality of available data-centers and one of the containers to migrate to the selected data-center based on data of the behavior model; and migrating, by the processor, the selected container from a source data-center among the available data-centers to the destination data-center.
Claims20
A method of migrating a container, the method comprising:
- monitoring, by a processor, a plurality of applications executing on a system to generate monitored data, where each application includes at least one container;
- building, by the processor, a behavior model using the monitored data;
- selecting, by the processor, a destination data-center among a plurality of available data-centers and one of the containers to migrate to the selected data-center based on data of the behavior mode;
- and
- migrating, by the processor, the selected container from a source data-center among the available data-centers to the destination data-center.
A computer system configured to migrate a container, the system comprising:
- a memory storing a computer program;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the computer program,
- wherein the computer program is configured to:
- monitor a plurality of applications executing on a system to generate monitored data, where each application includes at least one container;
- build a behavior model using the monitored data;
- select a destination data-center among a plurality of available data-centers and one of the containers to migrate to the selected data-center based on data of the behavior model, and migrate the selected container from a source data-center among the available data-centers to the destination data-center.
A computer program product to migrate a container, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to perform a method comprising:
- monitoring a plurality of applications executing on a system to generate monitored data, where each application includes at least one container;
- building a behavior model using the monitored data;
- selecting a destination data-center among a plurality of available data-centers and one of the containers to migrate to the selected data-center based on data of the behavior model;
- and
- migrating the selected container from a source data-center among the available data-centers to the destination data-center.
