Herein are resource-constrained techniques that plan ahead for resiliently moving pluggable databases between container databases after a failure in a high-availability database cluster. In an embodiment, a computer identifies many alternative placements that respectively assign each pluggable database to a respective container database. For each alternative placement, a respective resilience score is calculated for each pluggable database that is based on the container database of the pluggable database. Based on the resilience scores of the pluggable databases for the alternative placements, a particular placement is selected as an optimal placement that would maximize utilization of computer resources, minimize database latencies, maximize system throughput, and maximize the ability of the database cluster to avoid a service outage.
