Abstract
Techniques for database selection during site provisioning in distributed computing systems are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method can include receiving a user request for a site to be hosted on one or more nodes in the distributed computing system. In response to the received user request, one of the databases is selected by randomly selecting a set of databases from a list of available databases, determining a subset of databases each having a lower level of database load than the other databases from the set of databases, and randomly selecting one database from the subset of databases. The method further includes storing a configuration file for the site in the randomly selected one database to enable the site to be accessible, the configuration file containing data representing one or more of module loading control, security configuration, session state configuration, application language, or compilation setting of the site.
