Abstract
A Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI) ephemeral workload/data provisioning system includes a workload system coupled to a plurality of HCI systems by a manager system. The manager system identifies a first ephemeral workload that is provided by the workload system and that is configured to operate on one of the plurality of HCI systems for less than a first time period. In response to identifying the first ephemeral workload, the manager system determines first data that is to-be utilized by the first ephemeral workload and that is stored on a first HCI system that is included in the plurality of HCI systems. In response to determining that the first HCI system includes the first data that is to-be utilized by the first ephemeral workload, the manager system causes the first ephemeral workload to be provisioned on the first HCI system.
