Goal: Create an application to deploy a task (e.g. install updates or
software) to multiple client machines within the network (LAN). Assume this
app is run on an admin server and it has 1000+ client machines, how to
maximize the result? That means the shorter the deployment time, the better.
My thoughts are:
Enable muti-thread to have multiple clients get processed at the same time.
Question: If this Admin server is a |

let the server send out install request (or command that client should run
to trigger the installation) to all clients. let the installation run in
async manner.
so how long it will take to install one client, how long it would take to
install all.
btw, this is not a real distributed question. |

If you only have one server, these tasks run sequentially:
- Let the server send out install request. The code is something like - For
each client in clientlist, run command xxx.
- Let the server receive the installation status from each client. For each
client in clientlist, get service running status
If you get 1000+ machines, it still takes a while.
How to send these requests in async manner? |

另外，你提到的centralization of management，没有什么难度啊，如果你不要求

tolerance的话。
如果你需要tolerate byzantine fault，倒是可以看看文章

发帖数: 742 | 7 u need to de-couple the install request send and install status response.
during the installation time on client, there is no need to hold any
expensive resource on server side.
