Distributed failover for multi-tenant server farms based on load times of replicated tenants

摘要

A failover manager may be configured to determine a plurality of tenants executable on a server of a plurality of servers, each tenant being a virtual machine executable on the server in communication with at least one corresponding user. The failover manager may include a replicated tenant placement selector configured to dispatch a first replicated tenant for a first tenant of the plurality of tenants to a first standby server of the plurality of servers, and configured to dispatch a second replicated tenant for a second tenant of the plurality of tenants to a second standby server of the plurality of servers. The failover manager also may include a replicated tenant loader configured to activate, based on a failure of the server, the first replicated tenant on the first standby server to replace the first tenant, and the second replicated tenant on the second standby server to replace the second tenant.
