Multi-layer QOS management in a distributed computing environment

Abstract:

A method for multi-layer quality of service (QoS) management in a distributed computing environment includes receiving a workload and identifying a workload QoS class for the workload. The workload is scheduled to be run compute nodes. The workload QoS class is translated to a plurality of different resource layer QoS classes, and the plurality of QoS classes are communicated to a workload execution manager of the compute nodes. The workload execution manager extends the plurality of different resource layer QoS classes to respective resource layers involved in the running of the workload.
