Network-aware Scheduling in Kubernetes

Explore network-aware scheduling in Kubernetes through this conference talk by José Santos from Ghent University. Learn about a new framework designed to optimize latency-sensitive applications by considering network factors in addition to traditional resource metrics. Discover how the framework incorporates two controllers (AppGroup and NetworkTopology) and three scheduling plugins (TopologicalSort, NodeNetworkCostFit, and NetworkMinCost) to ensure bandwidth reservations and minimize end-to-end application latency. Gain insights into the benefits of this approach for applications like databases and multi-tier web services. Watch a demonstration showcasing the framework's advantages and understand the challenges and lessons learned in implementing network-aware scheduling in Kubernetes environments.
