1. A method comprising:

  • receiving a request for resources within a compute environment, wherein the request comprises a credential that places a limit on use of the compute environment for a job associated with the request;

    generating a credential map for the credential that indicates one of reserved resources and consumed resources at given time frames;

    generating a resource availability map that identifies times and resources that are available independent of any policy;

    generating a composite intersecting map that intersects the resource availability map with the credential map;

    selecting a time frame for reserving resources for the request based on the composite intersecting map; and

    reserving resources within the compute environment for the request based on the time frame and the composite intersecting map.
