Abstract
The subject technology selects a particular zone among multiple zones based on a target skew to meet a global balancing of cluster instances. The subject technology deploys a particular type of cluster instance to the particular zone. The subject technology, for each zone from the multiple zones, determines a respective number of cluster instances. The subject technology identifies a second particular type of cluster instance to remove based on a total number of the second particular type of cluster instance in the multiple zones and a second total number of the particular type of cluster instance in the multiple zones. The subject technology removes the second particular type of cluster instance from a second particular zone to meet the global balancing of cluster instances in the multiple zones.
