More Information
Summary:A system for distributed computing includes a job scheduler module configured to identify a job request including request requirements and comprising one or more individual jobs. The system also includes a resource module configured to determine an execution set of computing resources from a pool of computing resources based on the request requirements. Each computing resource of the pool of computing resources has an application programming interface. The pool of computing resources comprises public cloud computing resources and internal computing resources. The system further includes a plurality of interface modules, where each interface module is configured to facilitate communication with the computing resources using the associated application programming interface. The system also includes an executor module configured to identify the appropriate interface module based on facilitating communication with the execution computing resource and transmit jobs for execution to the execution computing resource using the interface modules.
