Abstract
Scheduling tasks for concurrent execution in parallel is provided. Metrics corresponding to execution of tasks in a plurality of stages of a distributed application are received from a set of worker nodes. An analysis of the metrics corresponding to the execution of the tasks in the plurality of stages of the distributed application is performed using a prediction model. An optimal per-stage task execution parallelism level for each respective stage of the plurality of stages is determined using the prediction model based on the analysis of the metrics. The tasks are scheduled to execute on the set of worker nodes based on the optimal per-stage task execution parallelism level determined for each respective stage of the plurality of stages to improve at least one of runtime of the distributed application and resource utilization by the distributed application.
