Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer readable media that utilize a low-impact live-migration system to reduce unfavorable impacts caused as a result of live-migrating computing containers between physical server devices of a cloud computing system. For example, systems disclosed herein evaluates characteristics of computing containers on server devices to determine a predicted unfavorable impact of live-migrating the computing containers between the server devices. Based on the predicted impact, the systems disclosed herein can selectively identify which computing containers to live-migrate as well as carry out live-migration of the select computing containers in such a way the significantly reduces unfavorable impacts to a customer or client device associated with the computing containers.
