Abstract
The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method, computer system and computer program product for managing a task flow. According to the computer-implemented method, a definer module may receive a request for executing a task flow. The definer module may determine a cluster of edge devices to execute the task flow from a set of edge devices. The definer module may retrieve metadata information for the task flow and edge devices in the cluster, wherein the metadata information is used to schedule the task flow in the cluster. Then the edge devices in the cluster may execute the task flow according to the metadata information.
