Abstract
Technologies are disclosed for improving the availability of a distributed application by computing scores for the application that indicate the extent to which the configuration of hosts implementing the application complies with best practices for maximizing availability. One score can be generated for the application based upon the physical location of the hosts used to implement the application and the components upon which the application is dependent. Another score can be generated for the application based upon the number of data centers that hosts executing the application are located in as compared to a minimum required number of data centers. Another score can be generated for the application based upon the distribution of hosts utilized to execute the application across data centers. Operations can be initiated for improving the scores, such as migrating a host to a new rack or server, or migrating a host to a different data center.
