Job scheduling based on node and application characteristics

摘要

Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for scheduling an application. The method includes one or more processors receiving a task, the task includes instructions indicating desired nodes to perform the task through programs. The method further includes one or more processors identifying application characteristic information and node characteristic information associated with nodes within a data center composed of nodes. The application characteristic information includes resource utilization information for applications on nodes within the data center. The method further includes one or more processors determining that the nodes reach a threshold level of power consumption. The threshold level is a pre-set maximum amount of power utilized by a node within the data center. The method further includes one or more processors determining a node consuming an amount of power that is below a threshold level of power consumption in the data center.
