Server resource balancing using a suspend-resume strategy

Abstract:

The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for resource allocation and management. One example method includes receiving, by a first dispatcher in a dispatching layer, a first request to run a first task for a first application, the first request including a first application priority. A determination is made that the first application priority is lower than at least one higher application priority of another application. Execution of the first application is suspended based on determining that the first application priority is lower than the at least one higher application priority. An indication that an application having a higher application priority has finished is received. A determination is made that the first application priority is a highest application priority of currently-running applications. The first task for the first application is dispatched to a first application server.
