Abstract
An apparatus comprises a processing device that is configured to identify first and second subsets of nodes in a plurality of nodes, the first subset of nodes having dependencies with a first node in the plurality of nodes and the second subset of nodes having dependencies with a second node in the plurality of nodes. The processing device is configured to select the first node for an upgrade and to determine that the second node is not included in the first subset. The processing device is configured to determine that the first node is not included in the second subset and to upgrade the first and second nodes at least partially in parallel based at least in part on the determination that the second node is not included in the first subset and the determination that the first node is not included in the second subset.
