Abstract

An information processing system includes one or more virtual machines, a container scaling apparatus, a virtual-machine scaling apparatus, a calculating unit, and a reflecting unit. The container scaling apparatus performs autoscaling of a container that runs on the one or more virtual machines. The virtual-machine scaling apparatus performs autoscaling of the virtual machines in accordance with a difference in a necessary number of virtual machines and a number of virtual machines that are currently running. The calculating unit calculates, from a necessary number of containers calculated by the container scaling apparatus, a number of virtual machines that is necessary to cause the necessary number of containers to run thereon. The reflecting unit reflects the number calculated by the calculating unit to the necessary number of virtual machines to be used by the virtual-machine scaling apparatus.
