Abstract
This disclosure describes a scheduler of an instance replacement service of a service provider network determines a first instance that needs replacement. The scheduler determines if a second instance exists and based upon determining the second instance exists, the scheduler schedules a first application to be moved from the first instance to the second instance. An executor of the instance replacement service moves the first application from the first instance to the second instance and decrements a counter by one. Based on a current value of the counter equaling zero, the executor discontinues moving of applications from the first instance to the second instance and recycles the first instance.
