Abstract
A global-level manager accesses a work order referencing at least one executable file and one or more input files. The one or more input files are partitioned into multiple shards. The work order is partitioned into multiple jobs. The jobs are distributed among a plurality of to be processed by a task level manager at each of the plurality of clusters. The executable file is loaded into the native client environment through a validator. The validator is configured to insure that the executable file does not include one or more of a defined set of instructions, does not call instructions outside of the executable file, and does not read or write data outside of a data region associated with the executable file.
