Abstract

A method for providing a function via a network of processing units using multiple computing instances. Each computing instance implements the function and is configured, when it is executed, to determine at least one result in response to a call-up of the function. The method includes validating the computing instances, each being checked as to whether the computing instance corresponds to a respective predetermined state; determining a respective level of reliability for each of the processing units; starting execution of successfully validated computing instances in the processing units, which have a level of reliability that is equal/greater than a predetermined minimum level of reliability; receiving a function request from a user; calling up the function in at least a portion of the executed computing instances corresponding to the function request, in order to determine multiple results; determining a response based on the results; and sending the response to the user.
