Abstract
A scheduler receives a job graph which includes a graph of computational vertices that are designed to be executed on multiple distributed computer systems. The scheduler queries a graph manager to determine which computational vertices of the job graph are ready for execution in a local execution environment. The scheduler queries a cluster manager to determine the organizational topology of the distributed computer systems to simulate the determined topology in the local execution environment. The scheduler queries a data manager to determine data storage locations for each of the computational vertices indicated as being ready for execution in the local execution environment. The scheduler also indicates to a vertex spawner that an instance of each computational vertex is to be spawned in the local execution environment based on the organizational topology and indicated data storage locations, and indicates to the local execution environment that the spawned vertices are to be executed.
