Abstract

In some embodiments, an automation optimizer is configured to determine whether a provisioning condition is satisfied, for instance according to a current length of a job queue, or according to a current workload of a selected RPA host platform executing a plurality of software robots. When to the provisioning condition is satisfied, some embodiments automatically provision additional VMs onto the respective RPA host platform, and automatically remove VMs when automation demand is low. Exemplary RPA hosts include cloud computing platforms and on-premises servers, among others.
