A method and control node for managing cloud resources in a communications network for a client being served by a primary data center holding service data associated with a cloud service being executed for the client in the primary data center. A first backup data center having free processing and storage resources for the cloud service, is selected based on usage of links between a source node associated with the client and the first backup data center. The service data is then saved in the first backup data center, thereby enabling the cloud service to be recovered in the first backup data center. If the usage of links in potential communication paths between the source node and the first backup data center exceeds a link usage threshold, the saved service data may be transferred from the first backup data center to a second backup data center.
