1. A computer-implemented method of implementing an on-demand computing network environment, comprising:
configuring an on-demand computing network, wherein the configuring comprises:
assigning a first provisioned resource as a hub node;
assigning one or more second provisioned resources as rim nodes, wherein the rim nodes are configured to communicate with one another via the hub node;
moving a particular node of the on-demand computing network by:
provisioning a new provisioned resource as a new node to replace the particular node and configuring the new provisioned resource based on parameters associated with the particular node;
establishing a tunnel between the new node and a neighboring node of the particular node; and
deprovisioning the particular node such that traffic between the new node and the neighboring node traverses the established tunnel,
wherein the particular node is the hub node, one of the rim nodes, or an additional node of the on-demand computing network.
