Abstract
Dynamically adjusting the parameters of a parallel, distributed job in response to changes to the status of the job cluster. Includes beginning execution of a job in a cluster, receiving cluster status information, determining a job performance impact of the cluster status, reconfiguring job parameters based on the performance impact, and continuing execution of the job using the updated configuration. Dynamically requesting a change to the resources of the job cluster for a parallel, distributed job in response to changes in job status. Includes beginning execution of a job in a cluster, receiving job status information, determining a job performance impact, requesting a changed allocation of cluster resources based on the determined job performance impact, reconfiguring one or more job parameters based on the changed allocation, and continuing execution of the job using the updated configuration.
