1. A computer-implemented method for resource scheduling, the method comprising:

  • selecting, for placement of a powering-on virtual computing instance (VCI), a candidate set of hosts from a plurality of hosts in a cluster based on processor utilization and memory utilization;

    receiving runtime statistics associated with the plurality of hosts within the cluster, the runtime statistics comprising network utilization associated with each host in the candidate set of hosts, wherein the network utilization comprises internal networking statistics associated with network traffic between at least two virtual computing instances (VCIs) on a same host;

    generating a network utilization ranking for each host in the candidate set of hosts based on the network utilization;

    selecting a host from the candidate set of hosts based on the generated network utilization rankings; and

    placing the powering-on VCI on the selected host.
