AUTONOMOUSLY REPRODUCING AND DESTRUCTING VIRTUAL MACHINES

摘要

Various examples are disclosed for autonomously reproducing and destructing virtual machines. Various virtual machines can be provisioned in a computing environment having at least one computing device. Each of the virtual machines provisioned can process a workload assigned to the at least one computing device. Further, each of the virtual machines can independently determine whether to self-replicate or self-destroy based at least on a state of processing of the workload. To self-replicate, each of the virtual machines can cause a new virtual machine to be created, where a processing of the workload is divided between a virtual machine and the new virtual machine created.
