Abstract
The present disclosure relates generally to virtualization, and more particularly to techniques for deploying containers in a virtual environment. The container scheduling can be based on information determined by a virtual machine scheduler. For example, a container scheduler can receive a request to deploy a container. The container scheduler can send container information to the virtual machine scheduler. The virtual machine scheduler can use the container information along with resource utilization of one or more virtual machines to determine an optimal virtual machine for the container. The virtual machine scheduler can send an identification of the optimal virtual machine back to the container scheduler so that the container scheduler can deploy the container on the optimal virtual machine.
