US Patent 10970061 Rolling upgrades in disaggregated systems

Embodiments for performing rolling software upgrades in a disaggregated computing environment. A rolling upgrade manager is provided for upgrading one or more disaggregated servers. A designated memory area is used for storing an updated software component, and a disaggregated server is switched to the designated memory area from a currently assigned memory area when performing the software upgrade. A process state and program data is maintained in the currently assigned memory area while maintaining the updated software component in the designated memory area such that the process state and program data are read from the currently assigned memory area and the updated software component is read from the designated memory area during currently executing operations of the disaggregated server.
