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 deployments may include different hardware resources, may have different levels of performance, and/or may have other different characteristics that may impact performance of a given workload using any of the deployments. To service the workloads, container instances may be deployed to various deployments. When deciding where to deploy the container instances, the hardware resources of the deployments and/or resource expectations associated with the container instances may be taken into account. By doing so, container instances may be more likely to be deployed to deployments that meet their resource expectations.
