Abstract
A system and method for efficiently replacing clients running a large scale application uses a pool of clients, which includes a group of active clients running the large scale application and at least one standby client. When a particular active client is identified to be replaced, one of the at least one standby client is selected as a replacement client for the particular active client. The particular active client is replaced with the selected replacement client with respect to the running of the large scale application such that the particular client is removed from the group of active clients and the selected replacement client is added to the group of active clients.
