receiving information from one or more information technology (IT) sensors configured to measure an aspect of an IT operation associated with nodes of the list of nodes, the one or more IT sensors including a thermal sensor, a current measuring device, a power measuring device, and a phase detection device; and

filtering the list of nodes based on the information from the one or more information technology sensors configured to measure an aspect of an IT operation associated with nodes of the list of nodes, wherein each node associated with the list of nodes refers to a physical server located in a particular rack, wherein filtering the list of nodes based on the information from the one or more information technology sensors configured to measure an aspect of an IT operation associated with nodes of the list of nodes includes: prioritizing nodes from the list of nodes available to process an application or part of an application based upon an IT operations health score associated with each node calculated from data from the one or more IT sensors, wherein the IT operations health score is an indication of the ability of each node to process the application or part of the application; and removing at least one node from the list of nodes available to process an application or part of an application based on the information from the one or more IT sensors, wherein the removing at least one node from the list of nodes available to process an application or part of an application based on the information from the one or more IT sensors is based on the IT operations health score associated with each node calculated from data from the one or more IT sensors, wherein the IT operations health score is lower when its associated node has insufficient power capacity or phase imbalance.

11. The system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the IT operations health score is higher when its associated node has sufficient power capacity or phase balance.

12. A computer-implemented method for risk-based scheduling of a containerized application service, executable by a processing device and non-transitory computer-readable instructions stored on a storage device, which, when executed by the processing device, cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:
