GRID SERVICE SCHEDULING OF RELATED SERVICES USING HEURISTICS

摘要

A method and system for creating service instances in a computing grid. Themethod can include scheduling a service (200B) in the computing grid (120) toprocess at least a portion of a requested transaction. At least one additionalservice related to the scheduled service can be identified, and a loadcondition can be assessed in the at least one additional service related tothe scheduled service. A new instance of the at least one additional servicecan be created (260) if the load condition exceeds a threshold load. In thisway, an enhanced capacity for processing transactions can be established inthe related services in advance of a predicted increase in load in the grid.
