Abstract

Various techniques for managing heat and backwards-incompatible updates in cloud-based networks are described. In an example method, a virtualized resource, is identified. At least one first host may include an updated version of an element and at least one second host may include a previous version of the element. The updated version may be incompatible with the previous version. A first desirability index corresponding to the at least one first host may be less than a second desirability index corresponding to the at least one second host. The virtualized resource may be live-migrated from the source host to a target host among the at least one first host.
