Abstract

Techniques disclosed herein provide an approach for managing aggregation service hierarchies. In some embodiments, a hierarchy of an aggregation service is identified. The hierarchy comprises a plurality of nodes, where a respective node is associated with at least one host computer. The aggregation service places resource consumers based on the nodes. A host computer is assigned as a child host of a leaf node based on a clustering heuristic. The clustering heuristic requires the host computer to have access to at least one resource that is accessible to an existing child host of the leaf node. A resource consumer associated with the leaf node is executed on the host computer.
