TECHNOLOGIES FOR OFFLOADING ACCELERATION TASK SCHEDULING OPERATIONS TO ACCELERATOR SLEDS

Abstract:

Technologies for offloading acceleration task scheduling operations to accelerator sleds include a compute device to receive a request from a compute sled to accelerate the execution of a job, which includes a set of tasks. The compute device is also to analyze the request to generate metadata indicative of the tasks within the job, a type of acceleration associated with each task, and a data dependency between the tasks. Additionally the compute device is to send an availability request, including the metadata, to one or more micro-orchestrators of one or more accelerator sleds communicatively coupled to the compute device. The compute device is further to receive availability data from the one or more micro-orchestrators, indicative of which of the tasks the micro-orchestrator has accepted for acceleration on the associated accelerator sled. Additionally, the compute device is to assign the tasks to the one or more micro-orchestrators as a function of the availability data.
