Abstract

Systems, methods, and software technology for governing resource utilization in a computing environment. In an implementation, a governance thread started by a job manager process identifies threads running within the job manager process and associates each of the threads with one of various jobs. The governance thread then tracks a resource utilization level of each of the jobs based on the resource utilization level of each of the threads associated with the job. When the resource utilization level of any of the jobs exceeds a threshold, the governance thread is able to shut down at least one of the threads associated with the job.
