US Patent 11706105 Selecting low priority pods for guaranteed runs

Service assurance is provided. A low priority pod corresponding to a low priority service in an orchestration platform that is to be evicted due to a predicted peak load period of a high priority service is identified based on analysis of historical and resource information. The low priority service corresponding to the low priority pod that is to be evicted due to the predicted peak load period of the high priority service is marked as an assured service for a guaranteed run in response to receiving an input from a user who was notified regarding eviction of the low priority pod. The low priority pod corresponding to the low priority service that is to be evicted due to the predicted peak load period of the high priority service is provisioned on a second host node prior to the eviction of the low priority pod from a first host node.
