Abstract
Techniques for rendering user interface (UI) in a virtual set top system using a pooling of UI rendering engines is performed at a device (e.g., a server or a cloud computing platform). The pooling method includes receiving multiple requests for UIs from multiple client devices, where the multiple requests include states of the UIs. The method further includes dividing the multiple requests into a plurality of groups based at least in part on the states of the UIs, where a respective group of the plurality of groups corresponds to requests for a set of UIs from a respective set of client devices. The method additionally includes assigning a pool of UI engines in a virtual machine (VM) to render the set of UIs for the respective set of client devices based on one or more of characteristics of the set of UIs and characteristics of the respective group.
