Abstract
A workflow resource manager receives a request to execute a workflow in a cloud computing environment, where the workflow comprises a first set of operations and a second set of operations, and where the first set of operations precedes the second set of operations in the workflow. The workflow resource manager determines a set of cloud computing resource requirements associated with the second set of operations, determines whether the set of cloud computing resource requirements associated with the second set of operations is satisfied by available cloud computing resources, and responsive to determining that the set of cloud computing resource requirements associated with the second set of operations is not satisfied by the available cloud computing resources, rejects the request to execute the workflow.
