Abstract
Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program receives a request to execute a task for re-encrypting a set of data associated with an application that has been encrypted with a first encryption key. The task is for re-encrypting the set of data using a second encryption key. The program further determines an amount of work to complete the task. The program also divides the task into a set of subtasks based on the amount of work. The program further assigns each subtask in the set of subtasks to a node in a plurality of nodes for execution of the subtask. The plurality of nodes are configured to implement the application.
