Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for dynamic regulation of parallelism for job scheduling are disclosed. A job scheduler sends a resource manager a request to execute a first set of compute jobs using a set of computing resources. The number of jobs corresponds to a first parallelism value. The job scheduler receives a response indicating that the number of computing resources was sufficient or insufficient to schedule the jobs. The job scheduler sends another request to execute another set of compute jobs whose number corresponds to a new parallelism value determined based at least in part on the response. If the number of computing resources was sufficient, the new parallelism value represents an increase over the first parallelism value. If the number of computing resources was insufficient, the new parallelism value represents a decrease from the first parallelism value.
