Abstract
The present application discloses a method, system, and computer system for automatically scaling task-processing capacity. The method includes obtaining, at a data layer, a current measure of queued tasks and/or a task-processing capacity, obtaining, by one or more processors, a cost-prioritized criterion or a latency-prioritized criterion, determining a set of tasks to process using the task-processing capacity based at least in part on a set of an input data to process, and automatically scaling the task-processing capacity based at least in part on the current measure of queued tasks and/or the task-processing capacity and either (i) the cost-prioritized criterion or (ii) the latency-prioritized criterion.
