Abstract
Methods and systems for managing the performance of workloads in a distributed system are disclosed. The distributed system may include any number of clients and deployments where workloads may be performed. The workloads may be performed by deploying container instances to the deployments. The container instances may perform the workload when deployed. It may be challenging to ascertain whether a container instance, container image on which the instance is based, and/or corresponding build file used to obtain the container image should be trusted. Metadata block chains may be used to ascertain whether container instances should be deployed to service the workload requests.
