Programming model and framework for providing resilient parallel tasks

摘要

Exemplary embodiments herein describe programming models and frameworks for providing parallel and resilient tasks. Tasks are created in accordance with predetermined structures. Defined tasks are stored as data objects in a shared pool of memory that is made up of disaggregated memory communicatively coupled via a high performance interconnect that supports atomic operations as descried herein. Heterogeneous compute nodes are configured to execute tasks stored in the shared memory. When compute nodes fail, they do not impact the shared memory, the tasks or other data stored in the shared memory, or the other non-failing compute nodes. The non-failing compute nodes can take on the responsibility of executing tasks owned by other compute nodes, including tasks of a compute node that fails, without needing a centralized manager or schedule to re-assign those tasks. Task processing can therefore be performed in parallel and without impact from node failures.
