Abstract

A data delivery service of a service provider may receive respective job specifications for different data transfer jobs between computing infrastructure collections (e.g., data centers). A job specification for a data transfer job may include an amount of data to be transferred for the data transfer job, one or more destinations of data transfers for the data transfer job, and/or one or more flexibility parameters for successful transfer of the data for the data transfer job (e.g., a deadline to transfer the data, available data delivery techniques). The data delivery service may determine a schedule for performing different data transfer jobs between two or more infrastructures based on an analysis of the amount of data to be transferred for each job, the destinations of the data transfer for each job, the flexibility parameters for each job (e.g., included in the respective job specifications), and the connectivity between computing infrastructure collections.
