Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer program products for service-to-service scheduling in container orchestrators are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes reserving, by a network orchestrator, network resources requested between a plurality of services, wherein each of the services is implemented as one or more replicas running on a set of nodes of a cluster, managed by the network orchestrator, that use the network resources to serve incoming requests to the plurality services; monitoring utilization of the network resources; and scheduling, by the network orchestrator based on the monitoring, one or more new replicas of the plurality of services and the incoming requests to the plurality of services in a collaborative manner to increase at least one network performance characteristic.
