Description

Sparrow Scheduler have various benefits as compared to current schedulers

• With sparrow, we will have no common shared state for the cluster tasks. This essentially means that scheduler will be scalable in nature. Now any node can schedule the task.
• It is meant for clusters with large number of nodes. Theoretically most of the times, it seems to perform better than the current schedulers.
