Abstract
In an embodiment, a method includes maintaining a pool of server resources, maintaining a pool of storage resources, maintaining a pool of network resources, and initializing, via a meta-cluster software manager, a multi-function cluster associated with a first customer of a datacenter including the pools. This multi-function cluster may include first servers of the pool of server resources, first storage devices of the pool of storage resources, and first network devices of the pool of network resources, and may be managed by the meta-cluster manager.
