Abstract

Techniques for fault-tolerant function placement across multiple computing placement locations are described. An application placement service obtains a latency-based placement of functions of an application and utilizes resource information associated with the placement locations to determine error rates for flows of the placement. For flows having an error rate falling outside of an allowable range, the application placement service can modify the placement to improve the error rate, e.g., by adding additional redundancy for functions in higher-error placement locations within those placement location tiers, and/or by adding additional redundancy for functions in higher-error placement locations within different placement location tiers.
