Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically relocating pods to optimize inter-pod networking efficiency are provided. The method comprises receiving and storing inter-pod traffic data for a plurality of pods. The plurality of pods includes a first pod, a second pod, and a third pod. The method further includes receiving and storing node resource availability data for each node of a plurality of nodes, generating a queue that sorts the plurality of pods by an amount of inter-pod traffic indicated by the inter-pod traffic data, generating a hash that maps one or more parameters to the plurality of nodes, selecting, based on the generated hash, a node of the plurality of nodes, and dynamically relocating a highest ranked pod of the plurality of pods from the generated queue to the selected node.
