Embodiments perform decentralized virtual machine (VM) migration decisions. By comparing a set of VM-specific rules with current statistics (e.g., resource usage), one host determines whether to migrate the VM and lazily selects another host to receive the VM. The rules define, for example, threshold values for resource usage. The host makes the migration decision and performs the migration without input from a centralized server. In this manner, migration decisions are offloaded to migration modules executing on each host for reactive and/or proactive migration. Proactive migration involves migrating a VM before the VM violates its rules.

Decentralized demand-based virtual machine migration management

Techniques for sharing and accessing VM screen via social media are described. In one example embodiment, a first user is allowed to log into the social media application via a browser in a client device at a first location. The first user is then allowed to select a feed type to share the VM screen in the client device at the first location. VM screen share information is then received from the first user via the client device at the first location. The VM screen is then shared upon receiving the VM screen share information from the first user via the client device at the first location.
