My first reaction was "this just sounds like Mesos?". And it's cited in their page (which on first read I thought meant they were trying to act as a single pane of glass for Mesos/k8s/etc.):

https://eng.uber.com/peloton/

In the OP blog post though, they assert "to our knowledge, there is no other open source scheduler which combines all types of workloads for web-scale companies like Uber."

And then, when you dig...it's just Mesos. They built a framework for Mesos. So, that's cool. But man, the puff piecery borders on dishonesty. I mean--Singularity has existed, and is implemented at very large scales, for a while. I'm sure Peloton is a fine scheduler, but there's a lot of huffing-one's-own-farts in the documentation here.

Singularity isn't a scheduler. It's generally invoked by traditional hpc schedulers like moab or slurm.

edit: clearly I'm thinking of a different Singularity than you.

Yeah - on a phone but I'm referring to the Mesos framework by HubSpot.

[jypepin]

very early on in the article there is a "Alternate cluster schedulers" section which cites mesos.

[rhizome]

I think eropple's point might be that it's listed as an alternate without a (or much) difference.

I second you
