Apparatus, system and method for rapid resource scheduling in a compute farm

摘要

Disclosed herein is a method for scheduling computing jobs for a compute farm. The method includes: receiving a plurality of computing jobs at a scheduler; assigning a signature to each computing job based on at least one computing resource requirement of the computing job; storing each computing job in a signature classification corresponding to the signature of the computing job; and scheduling at least one of the plurality of computing jobs for processing in the compute farm as a function of the signature classification.
