Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for event-driven scheduling using directed acyclic graphs are disclosed. A directed acyclic graph is generated that comprises a plurality of nodes and a plurality of edges. The nodes represent jobs, and the edges represent dependency relationships between individual jobs. Based (at least in part) on one or more events, a job scheduler determines that one of the nodes represents a runnable job. One or more of the dependency relationships for the runnable job are satisfied by the one or more events. An execution schedule is determined for the runnable job. Based (at least in part) on the execution schedule, execution of the runnable job is initiated using one or more computing resources.
