Abstract

See full text

A daemon agent for updating software instances in a cloud computing system is disclosed. The daemon agent in a first instance of an application detects a failure in a scenario. The daemon agent broadcasts a first message from the first instance to a plurality of peer instances of the application in the computing system to query whether the plurality of instances has experienced the failure. The daemon agent receives a second message from a second instance of the plurality of instances, where the second message indicates that the second instance has not experienced the failure. The daemon agent determines differences between the first instance and the second instance and selects one or more components of the application based on the determined differences. The daemon agent updates the first instance by installing the selected one or more components on the first instance.
