Abstract

A system for cluster management comprises a status monitor and an instance replacement manager. The status monitor is for monitoring status of an instance of a set of instances on a cluster provider. The instance replacement manager is for determining a replacement strategy for the instance in the event the instance does not respond. The replacement strategy for the instance is based at least in part on a management criteria for on-demand instances and spot instances on the cluster provider.
