Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for provisioning computing units. A spread request is received. The spread request relates to a class of assigned computing units residing within a plurality of networked computing units. The spread request is associated with a spread criteria. In response to the request, a plurality of networked computing units is provisioned based on failure correlation data and in accordance with the spread criteria, to produce a final spread score. Success is indicated in response to the request if the final spread score meets the spread criteria.
