Components of a distributed computing system are monitored, the components including hardware components and software components that operate on the hardware components. At least one of the software components is a service that includes a service level agreement. Performance characteristics of the components are determined based on the monitoring. The performance characteristics of the service are compared to the service level agreement to determine whether the service level agreement has been violated. At least one of the service or an additional service collocated with the service is migrated based on the performance characteristics of the components if the service level agreement has been violated.
