Data-aware workload scheduling and execution in heterogeneous environments

摘要

In an approach for scheduling the execution of a workload in a computing environment, a computer receives a request for scheduling execution of a computing job, wherein the computing job includes a plurality of computing tasks to be executed in a sequence, and wherein at least one computing task requires access to a set of data. The computer identifies information related to the computing environment, wherein the information comprises at least processors available to execute each computing task of the plurality of computing tasks and storage device proximity to the processors. The computer determines an execution configuration for the computing job based, at least in part, on the received request, the information related to the computing environment, and current utilization of the processors' resources. The computer schedules execution of the execution configuration for the computing job.
