A distributed flexible scheduler that dynamically balances network and storage traffic across links is proposed. The scheduler takes into account the bandwidth requirements of workloads provisioned in a cluster and dynamically distributes the network traffic and the storage traffic accordingly. There are three schemes involved in the proposed distributed flexible scheduler. In a first approach of Equal Distribution, network and storage traffic is distributed evenly across the links. In a second approach of Storage Preferred distribution, the aggregate storage bandwidth requirements of workloads exceed the network bandwidth requirements. In a third approach of Network Preferred distribution, the aggregate network bandwidth requirements of workloads exceed the storage bandwidth requirements.
