Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention manage workloads in a high-throughput computing environment for a hybrid processing system. A set of high-throughput computing service level agreements (SLAs) is retrieved. The set of SLAs is associated with a hybrid processing system including a server system and a set of accelerator systems, where each system has a different architecture. A first set of data-parallel workload tasks scheduled on the server system and a second set of data-parallel workload tasks scheduled with the set of accelerator systems are identified. At least a portion of one of the first set of data-parallel workload tasks and the second set of data-parallel workload tasks is dynamically rescheduled on a second one of the server system and the set of accelerator systems. The dynamically rescheduling substantially satisfies the set of high-throughput computing SLAs.
