Abstract
A method for scheduling computing resources without container migration includes determining a resource availability for one or more hosts, a resource allocation for one or more virtual machines (VMs), and a resource usage for one or more containers. The method further includes calculating a target resource configuration for one or more VMs, wherein calculating a target resource configuration comprises determining an upper limit of resource demand on a VM from one or more containers allocated on the VM, based at least in part on the resource usage. The method also includes removing or adding resources to each of the one or more VMs for which a target resource configuration was calculated to achieve the target resource configuration for each VM. The method further includes allocating the one or more VMs on the one or more hosts based on the resource availability of the one or more hosts.
