An approach for managing workload deployment, specifically, restarting workloads that are interdependent is provided. The approach includes a mechanism by which a group of interdependent workloads in a cloud infrastructure environment can be restarted sequentially. Interdependent workloads simply mean workloads that depend on each other in some way such that if one goes down, then the cloud infrastructure environment can experience downtime. The workloads can be of the same or different types. Additionally, this mechanism can be scaled such that groups of workloads can be restarted simultaneously. Furthermore, the approach can accommodate cloud infrastructure environments with multiple types of workloads, and it allows for groups of workloads to be restarted simultaneously while also allowing the workloads within each group to be restarted sequentially.
