Job-aware Scheduling in Eagle
Pamela Oliveira Delgado, Diego Didona, Florin Dinu, Willy Zwaenepoel · 2016
We present Eagle, a new hybrid data center scheduler for data-parallel programs. Eagle dynamically divides the nodes of the data center in partitions for the execution of long and short jobs, thereby avoiding head-of-line blocking. Furthermore, it provides job awareness and avoids stragglers by a new technique, called Sticky Batch Probing (SBP).
