ABSTRACT:
According to one embodiment, a method comprises scheduling, by a weighted proportional-share scheduler, access of competing flows to a computing service in accordance with respective weights assigned to the competing flows. The method further comprises autonomously determining, by a controller, based at least in part on received performance measurement for the flows, values of the respective weights assigned to the competing flows for achieving respective performance goals desired for the competing flows. When determined by the controller that the values of the respective weights assigned to the competing flows should be changed for achieving the performance goals, the controller communicates the changed values of the respective weights to the weighted proportional-share scheduler.
