Resource Manager (RM)

YuniKorn communicates with various implementation of resource management systems (Kubernetes, YARN) via a standard interface defined in the yunikorn-scheduler-interface package.

Allocation

A core scheduler-level concept. An allocation can be in one of two states ("Pending" and "In-Progress"). A pending allocation is one which has been decided upon by YuniKorn but has not yet been communicated to the default scheduler via PreFilter()/Filter(). Once PreFilter()/Filter() pass, the allocation transitions to "In-Progress" to signify that the default scheduler is responsible for fulfilling the allocation. Once PostBind() is called in the plugin to signify completion of the allocation, it is removed.
