Bill Farner commented on AURORA-1384:
-------------------------------------
My wording may have been ambiguous - i think this ticket is valid and should be
explored. Having a strategy for prioritizing slots when accepting offers is a
net improvement. I just think anyone using such a feature should be aware of
whether retroactive re-balancing is performed.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AURORA-1384
> Project: Aurora
> Issue Type: Story
> Components: Scheduler
> Affects Versions: 0.8.0
> Reporter: Anindya Sinha
>
> Currently, offers are arranged in a list. When new tasks need to be assigned
> an offer, the first offer from the list that matches the task constraints is
> assigned which over time may result in a non even distribution of tasks on
> slaves in the cluster.
> In addition to existing algorithm ("first-fit"), we can support alternate
> algorithms as follows:
> i) bin-packed: Offer is assigned to a task based on a bin packed algorithm
> which ensures a specific offer is used up to the maximum possible with
> respect to resources (cpu) before moving to an alternate offer.
> ii) even-distribution: Offer is assigned to ensure even distribution of load
> on each slave on the cluster based on resources (cpu).
