Scalable job transformation and management

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for scalable job transformation and management are disclosed. A plurality of tasks expressed in a first format are received at a host. The tasks are associated with a shard identifier based at least in part on one or more criteria, and the tasks are acquired by the host based at least in part on the shard identifier. A subset of the tasks having a common characteristic are determined. The subset of the tasks are aggregated into a job expressed in a second format, where the job represents the subset of the tasks. The job is provided to a job manager, and the subset of the tasks are scheduled for processing using the job manager.
