ELASTIC APPLICATION FRAMEWORK FOR DEPLOYING SOFTWARE
First Claim
1. A computing device-implemented method for managing software, comprising:
- receiving a request to perform a software process that accesses data at a data store in a distributed computing environment;
responsive to the request, automatically identifying a first computing device in the distributed computing environment that is local to the data store;
automatically moving code to perform the software process to the first computing device; and
causing the first computing device to execute the code to perform the software process, including accessing the data at the data store.

Abstract
Software is deployed to, and executed at, one or more computing devices in a computing system based on current conditions in the computing system and the capabilities of the different computing devices to handle the software. A request to run a software process calls a manager which determines an optimal place to run the software process. The manager can consider factors such as response time, user demands, bandwidth, processor utilization, storage utilization, security considerations, compatibility considerations and cost. Once a computing device is selected to run the software process, the manager facilitates movement of code and/or data to the computing device.
