Scalable Concurrent Execution of Distributed Workflows Sharing Common Operations

摘要

Examples perform concurrent execution of distributed workflows sharing common operations by a plurality of nodes, such as execution of recovery plans for disaster recovery of virtual machines operating on and off premises. Concurrent execution of identical operations that were part of a previously executed workflow are prevented, by evaluating the source of the workflow and whether the workflow has previously been initiated by that source. The disclosure is scalable to allow for new nodes to be included.
