Abstract

Examples of techniques for managing workload distribution based on field programmable devices are disclosed. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method may include: determining, by a processor, a first workload performance for a first general purpose processor and a first field programmable device for a first processing system; determining, by the processor, a second workload performance for a second general purpose processor and a second field programmable device for a second processing system; determining whether the first processing system is likely to outperform the second processing system for execution of a workload; and responsive to determining that the first processing system is likely to outperform the second processing system for the workload, deploying the workload to the first processing system.
