Dynamically updating compute node location information in a distributed computing environment

Abstract:

An example controller node may, responsive to receiving a resource request from a client device, deploy a compute node for execution on a particular data center selected from data centers within a distributed computing system, and store at least one address assigned to the compute node in a node inventory data store. After storing the at least one address, and responsive to determining that the compute node is not accessible using the at least one address the controller node may determine, based on information received from the particular data center, that the compute node is still available for execution on the particular data center, and receive, from the particular data center, at least one updated address assigned to the compute node. The controller node may then update the node inventory data store to store the at least one updated address that is assigned to the compute node.
