Container orchestration in decentralized network computing environments

A computer-implemented method for deploying containers in a decentralized network computing environment includes: registering a predetermined amount of computing resources reserved by a plurality of computing devices for utilization as a worker node for running containers; receiving a request from a consumer node to provide services for deployment of a container workload; selecting at least a first computing device from the plurality of computing devices to serve as the worker node for deployment of the container workload; obtaining unidirectional control over a portion of the predetermined amount of computing resources reserved by at least the first computing device; and deploying the container workload on at least the first computing device. A corresponding computer system and computer program product are also disclosed.
