Abstract
A system for managing a cluster computing system includes a storage system and a processor. The storage system is configured to store a resource usage history for a set of tasks running on a computer cluster comprising a plurality of worker systems. The processor is configured to determine a required resource size for a task of the set of tasks based at least in part on the resource usage history for the task; resize resources allocated to the task to the required resource size; arrange tasks of the set of tasks on the plurality of worker systems to reduce a number of worker systems running tasks; and deallocate worker systems no longer running tasks.
