Scaling computing resources in a cluster
First Claim
1. A computerized method, comprising:
- receiving, at a manager server node for a cluster comprising a plurality of client nodes, a request for an allocation of a task;
determining, by at least one processor of the manager server node, a node type for the task, based on mapping the task to a list of categories, wherein values of at least two of categories in the list of categories overlap in range;
searching, by the manager server node, for available client nodes based on the node type for the task to select a client node to allocate the task;
determining, by the at least one processor of the manager server node, a zone of the selected client node, wherein the zone is mapped to the list of categories;
determining, by the at least one processor of the manager server node, a wait algorithm associated with the zone of the selected node; and
contacting, by the manager server node, the selected client node and passing the task and the wait algorithm to the selected client node.

Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for receiving a request for an allocation of a task in a cluster comprising a plurality of client nodes, determining a node type for the task, based on mapping the task to a list of categories, wherein at least two of categories in the list of categories overlap in range. The systems and methods further providing for searching for available client nodes based on the node type for the task to select a client node to allocate the task, determining a zone of the selected client node, wherein the zone is mapped to the list of categories, determining a wait algorithm associated with the zone of the selected node, and contacting the selected client node and passing the task and the wait algorithm to the selected client node.

12. A server computer comprising:
-
at least one processor; and a computer-readable medium coupled with the at least one processor, the computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon that are executable by the at least one processor to cause the server computer to perform operations comprising; receiving a request for an allocation of a task in a cluster comprising a plurality of client nodes; determining a node type for the task, based on mapping the task to a list of categories, wherein values of at least two of categories in the list of categories overlap in range; searching for available client nodes based on the node type for the task to select a client node to allocate the task; determining a zone of the selected client node, wherein the zone is mapped to the list of categories; determining a wait algorithm associated with the zone of the selected node; and contacting the selected client node and passing the task and the wait algorithm to the selected client node. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon that are executable by at least one processor to cause a computing device to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving a request for an allocation of a task in a cluster comprising a plurality of client nodes; determining a node type for the task, based on mapping the task to a list of categories, wherein values of at least two of categories in the list of categories overlap in range; searching for available client nodes based on the node type for the task to select a client node to allocate the task; determining a zone of the selected client node, wherein the zone is mapped to the list of categories; determining a wait algorithm associated with the zone of the selected node; and contacting the selected client node and passing the task and the wait algorithm to the selected client node.
