METHODS AND APPARATUS TO DETERMINE CONTAINER PRIORITIES IN VIRTUALIZED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTS

Abstract:

An example apparatus includes memory, and at least one processor to execute instructions to assign first containers to a first cluster and second containers to a second cluster based on the first containers including first allocated resources that satisfy a first threshold number of allocated resources and the second containers including second allocated resources that satisfy a second threshold number of allocated resources, determine a representative interaction count value for a first one of the first containers, the representative interaction count value based on a first network interaction metric corresponding to an interaction between the first one of the first containers and a combination of at least one of the first containers and at least one of the second containers, and generate a priority class for the first one of the first containers based on the representative interaction count value.
