Abstract

Embodiments are disclosed for a utilization-aware approach to cluster scheduling, to address this resource fragmentation and to improve cluster utilization and job throughput. In some embodiments a resource manager at a master node considers actual usage of running tasks and schedules opportunistic work on underutilized worker nodes. The resource manager monitors resource usage on these nodes and preempts opportunistic containers in the event this over-subscription becomes untenable. In doing so, the resource manager effectively utilizes wasted resources, while minimizing adverse effects on regularly scheduled tasks.
