SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PREVENTING SERVICE DISRUPTION DURING SOFTWARE UPDATES

摘要

Systems and methods for preventing service disruptions in a computing system. The methods comprise: receiving, at a cloud-based computing system, messages for initiating software updates requiring system reboots by remote computing machines; and performing operations by the cloud-based computing system to cause an operational state of only one remote computing machine to be transitioned from an online state to an offline state at any given time by scheduling the software updates and system reboots in a one-machine-at-a-time manner.
