Upcoming Features

This section lists some of the new features that will be coming soon to Nova.

Cost-aware Scheduling​

Nova's cost-aware scheduling feature aims to allow users to automatically choose target clusters for their workloads based on resource costs associated with each cluster.

Given that compute is available at different price points in different regions on different cloud providers, cost-aware scheduling is beneficial in the following scenarios:

  • Easily mobile workloads (like dev/test) where lowest price compute is all you care about
  • Workloads that need expensive compute shapes (like GPU) where picking Cloud Provider A over Cloud Provider B would result in significant cost savings
  • Batch workloads (such as data analytics, traditional AI/ML training jobs) where job completion times (or performance) is not a primary concern.

Interoperation with Kueue​

We are investigating how Nova can interoperate with Kueue, particularly in the area of available resources policy.
