VIRTUALIZED ENVIRONMENT CLUSTER UTILIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240184609 titled 'VIRTUALIZED ENVIRONMENT CLUSTER UTILIZATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a technique for compute job allocation in a virtualized computing environment. It involves obtaining a list of currently executing compute jobs, extracting job entities from job description files, creating clusters corresponding to the compute jobs, assigning queued compute jobs to clusters, and reusing the virtualized environment for job execution based on the assigned cluster.

  • Obtaining a list of currently executing compute jobs

Original Abstract Submitted

disclosed embodiments provide techniques for compute job allocation in a virtualized computing environment. a first list of compute jobs that are currently executing in a virtualized environment is obtained. for each job in the first list, a job description file is obtained. an entity extraction process is performed on the job description file to extract a plurality of job entities. multiple clusters are created that correspond to the compute jobs in the first list. a second list of compute jobs that are currently queued for execution is obtained. compute jobs in the second list are assigned to a cluster from the plurality of clusters, and the virtualized environment is reused for execution of a compute job from the second list based on the assigned cluster.
