Abstract: Workloads are scheduled on a common set of resources distributed across a cluster of hosts using at least two schedulers that operate independently. The resources include CPU, memory, network, and storage, and the workloads may be virtual objects, including VMs, and also operations including live migration of virtual objects, network file copy, reserving spare capacity for high availability restarts, and selecting hosts that are to go into maintenance mode. In addition, the at least two independent schedulers are assigned priorities such that the higher priority scheduler is executed to schedule workloads in its inventory on the common set of resources before the lower priority scheduler is executed to schedule workloads in its inventory on the common set of resources.

Abstract: Disclosed are various implementations of approaches for reassigning hosts between computing clusters. A computing cluster assigned to a first queue is identified. The first queue can include a first list of identifiers of computing clusters with insufficient resources for a respective workload. A host machine assigned to a second queue can then be identified. The second queue can include a second list of identifiers of host machines in an idle state. A command can then be sent to the host machine to migrate to the computing cluster. Finally, the host machine can be removed from the second queue.

Abstract: Various examples are disclosed for placing virtual machine (VM) workloads in a computing environment. Ephemeral workloads can be placed onto reserved instances or reserved hosts in a cloud-based VM environment. If a request to place a guaranteed workload is received, ephemeral workloads can be evacuated to make way for the guaranteed workload.

Abstract: Various aspects are disclosed for unified resource management of containers and virtual machines. A podVM resource configuration for a pod virtual machine (podVM) is determined using container configurations. The podVM comprising a virtual machine (VM) that provides resource isolation for a pod based on the podVM resource configuration. A host selection for the podVM is received from a VM scheduler. The host selection identifies hardware resources for the podVM. A container scheduler is limited to bind the podVM to a node corresponding to the hardware resources of the host selection from the VM scheduler. The podVM is created in a host corresponding to the host selection. Containers are started within the podVM. The containers correspond to the container configurations.
