Resource Management typically breaks down into either
-
a) Scheduling of largely independent jobs
-
b) Optimized data placement in a data parallel entity

So a) is all at middle tier and should use commodity solutions -- there are many queuing systems such as Condor, Codine, LSF which we can "wrap" and Microsoft does not yet have a fully scalable commodity solution

Enterprise computing has Transaction Monitors

So it is still embryonic but we suggest adopting the HLA/RTI framework as this supports job placement, interdependencies (time management) and hierarchical systems of federations --> federates

Optimized data placement has been largely solved as a mathematical problem by HPCC but not packaged broadly. Our suggestion suggests how to invoke as backend support for a commodity service
