Abstract
Embodiments are directed towards managing the distribution of tasks in a storage system. An execution path for tasks may be generated based on the type of the task and characteristics of the storage system such that the execution path includes storage computers in a storage system. The tasks may be provided to each storage computer in the execution path. A working set of intermediate results may be generated on the storage computer in the execution path. If there is more than one storage computer in the execution path, working sets may be iteratively communicated to a next storage computer in the execution path such that the next storage computer employs a previously generated working set to generate a next working set until each storage computer in the execution path has been employed to generate a working set. The results may be stored on the storage computers.
