Cloud-independent node upgrade

Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for upgrading a container node in a cloud environment. The system includes a processor coupled to a memory and a network interface. The processor is configured to obtain a version identifier associated with a cloud-based server instance and one or more container nodes operable in a cloud environment. The processor is further configured to identify the one or more container nodes associated with the cloud-based server instance. The processor is further configured to upgrade the one or more container nodes by instantiating one or more replacement container nodes having a pre-determined upgrade configuration associated with a new version identifier. The processor is further configured to associate the new version identifier with the cloud-based server instance and the one or more replacement container nodes.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
