Research on resource scheduling method based on Kubernetes

With the continuous development of cloud computing, the demand for cloud services in all walks of life is increasing. The scale of cloud computing services based on container technology is constantly growing, and Kubernetes has been widely used as a mainstream tool for container orchestration. It supports functions such as automatic deployment and service discovery, dramatically simplifies the container deployment process, and improves the availability and reliability of applications in cloud environments. However, the default scheduling strategy of Kubernetes adopts the greedy idea of first-come-first-served when facing multi-pod tasks, and schedules Pods to working nodes one by one. This scheduling scheme will lead to unbalanced cluster load and low resource utilization. To solve this problem, this paper introduces the selection, crossover, and mutation ideas in genetic algorithms into the artificial fish school algorithm, improves the foraging behavior in the artificial fish school algorithm, and constructs a custom scheduling strategy based on the enhanced artificial fish school algorithm. Experiments have shown that compared with the default scheduling strategy of Kubernetes, the customized scheduling strategy in this paper can effectively improve the load balancing of the cluster and improve the utilization of cluster hardware resources in the scenario of multi-pod scheduling.

Abstract

With the continuous development of cloud computing, the demand for cloud services in all walks of life is increasing. The scale of cloud computing services based on container technology is constantly growing, and Kubernetes has been widely used as a mainstream tool for container orchestration. It supports functions such as automatic deployment and service discovery, dramatically simplifies the container deployment process, and improves the availability and reliability of applications in cloud environments. However, the default scheduling strategy of Kubernetes adopts the greedy idea of first-come-first-served when facing multi-pod tasks, and schedules Pods to working nodes one by one. This scheduling scheme will lead to unbalanced cluster load and low resource utilization. To solve this problem, this paper introduces the selection, crossover, and mutation ideas in genetic algorithms into the artificial fish school algorithm, improves the foraging behavior in the artificial fish school algorithm, and constructs a custom scheduling strategy based on the enhanced artificial fish school algorithm. Experiments have shown that compared with the default scheduling strategy of Kubernetes, the customized scheduling strategy in this paper can effectively improve the load balancing of the cluster and improve the utilization of cluster hardware resources in the scenario of multi-pod scheduling.
