DaskDistributedDispatcher.jl
DaskDistributedDispatcher integrates Dispatcher.jl
with the python dask.distributed
scheduler service.
Overview
Dispatcher.jl
builds the graph of julia computations and submits jobs via the julia client to the dask.distributed scheduler
, which is in charge of determining when and where to schedule jobs on the julia workers. Thus, the computations can be scheduled and executed efficiently.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can the python
dask.distributed
scheduler be used for julia computations?
The dask.distributed
scheduler can be used in a julia workflow environment since it is language agnostic (no information that passes in or out of it is Python-specific). Instead the scheduler communicates with the workers/clients entirely using msgpack and long bytestrings. More information on the protocol used is here
