Extended cloud based system and method for task allocation

A method (400) for cloud management and task allocation, the method (400) comprising:

• authenticating (404), by way of a plurality of nodes (106a-106n), a first set of nodes (124a-124e) of the plurality of nodes (106a-106n);
• monitoring (406), by way of the plurality of nodes (106a-106n), the first set of nodes (124a-124e) to determine presence of at least one unhealthy node in the first set of nodes (124a-124e);
• redirecting (408), by way of the plurality of nodes (106a-106n), a plurality of data packets associated with the at least one unhealthy node to a node that is near to the at least one unhealthy node;
• and
• selecting (410), by way of the plurality of nodes (106a-106n), a second set of nodes (126a-126e) from the first set of nodes (124a-124e) based on one or more constraints associated with one or more services.
