Abstract

Herein are resource-constrained techniques that plan ahead for resiliently moving pluggable databases between container databases after a failure in a high-availability database cluster. In an embodiment that has a database cluster that hierarchically contains many pluggable databases in many container databases in many virtual machines, a computer identifies many alternative placements that respectively assign each pluggable database instance (PDB) to a respective container database management system (CDBMS). For each alternative placement, a respective placement score is calculated based on the PDBs and the CDBMSs. Based on the placement scores of the alternative placements, a particular placement is selected with a best placement score that indicates optimal resilience for accommodating adversity such as failover and overcrowding.
