Abstract
An example apparatus includes a deployment monitor to initiate a modification of a number of virtual machines deployed in the computing environment. The virtual machines including a first virtual machine to execute a first component of an application deployed in the computing environment. A dependents identifier is to identify an information dependency of a second virtual machine on information from the first virtual machine. The second virtual machine is to execute a second component of the application. An updater is to update the information dependency based on a scaling status of the first virtual machine. The information dependency in the configuration information including a reference to the first virtual machine.
