Abstract
In various embodiments, methods and systems for optimizing allocation of multi-priority service instances are provided. In embodiments, a quality metric associated with each candidate node to which a service instance could be allocated is determined. An eviction cost or a survival metric associated with at least a portion of the candidate nodes to which the service instance could be allocated are determined. The eviction costs generally indicate a cost to evict a service instance from a corresponding node such that another service instance can be allocated to that node. At least a portion of the quality metrics and either the eviction costs or the survival metrics are used to select a node from the candidate nodes to which to allocate the service instance.
