Abstract: Methods and apparatus to reduce application deployment sizes are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a build generator to generate a build profile associated with a virtual appliance in a virtualization environment, the build profile including a plurality of application components including archive files associated with the virtual appliance. The example apparatus also includes a duplicate identifier to determine when a first library and a second library included in the build profile are duplicate libraries, the first library associated with a first filename and a first data portion and the second library associated with a second filename and a second data portion. The example apparatus also includes a duplicate remover to, in response to a determination that the first library and the second library are duplicate libraries, replace the first filename with a hard link to the second data portion to update the build profile.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems to perform transparent database switching using master-replica high availability setup in relational databases are disclosed. An example system includes a first virtual appliance including a first proxy and a master database, the first proxy to forward service traffic to the master database, the master database to read and/or write data based on the service traffic; a second virtual appliance including a second proxy and a first replica database, the second proxy to determine data stored in the master database, the first replica database to replicate the master database; and a third virtual appliance including a third proxy and a second replica database, the third proxy to, in response to determining the master database of the first virtual appliance is to power down, promote the second replica database to the master database.
