Abstract
The subject technology determines an availability zone skew among multiple zones. The subject technology, based on the availability zone skew, determines a target skew to meet a global balancing of cluster instances. The subject technology, based on the target skew, selects a particular zone among multiple zones. The subject technology deploys a particular type of cluster instance to the particular zone. The subject technology, for each zone from the multiple zones, determining a respective number of cluster instances. The subject technology identifies a first zone that includes a highest number of cluster instances based on the respective number of cluster instances from each zone. The subject technology identifies a second zone that includes a lowest number of cluster instances based on the respective number of cluster instances from each zone.
