Abstract
Techniques for managing resources among clusters of computing devices in a computing system are described herein. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, via a computer network, a resource reassignment message indicating that a server is reassigned from a first cluster to a second cluster and in response to the received resource reassignment message, establishing communications with the server reassigned from the first cluster to the second cluster via the computer network. The method further includes subsequent to establishing communications with the server via the computer network, assigning a compute load to the server reassigned from the first cluster to the second cluster without physically relocating the server from the first cluster to the second cluster.
