Abstract
A system for improving workload performance using data locality and workload placement may include a schedule module that schedules workloads for execution on a computing device in one or more computing devices. Also, the computing devices access a shared data storage. Further, the system may include a tracking module that maintains a data store that associates paths in the shared data storage with dispatched workloads and associates the paths with at least one computing device, wherein a dispatched workload and the at least one computing device accessed a path; and a preferred device identification module that identifies preferred computing devices in the one or more computing devices for executing undispatched workloads based on information in the data store, wherein the schedule module schedules the execution of the undispatched workloads in response to the identified preferred computing devices.
