Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method. The method interfaces with several nodes of a hosting system. Each node includes resources for hosting several virtual machines. The method collects statistics for facilitating deployment of the virtual machines across the several resource nodes from the resource nodes. The method determines a particular node from the several nodes with sufficient available resources to host a configuration for a virtual machine based on the collected statistics. The method deploys the configuration for the virtual machine to the particular node for hosting on the particular node.
