Abstract
A system to improve cluster machine processing that may include a plurality of interconnected computers that process data as one if necessary, and at least one other plurality of interconnected computers that process data as one if necessary. The system may also include a central manager to control what data processing is performed on a shared processing job performed by the plurality of interconnected computers and the at least one other plurality of interconnected computers. Each of the plurality of interconnected computers runs parallel jobs scheduled by a local backfill scheduler. In order to schedule a cluster spanning parallel job, the local schedulers cooperate on placement and timing of the cluster spanning job, using existing backfill rules in order not to disturb the local job streams.
