Comment on Carving the scheduler out of our orchestratorparent

Comments

No, it's not that power usage for us is free, it's that the business is growing (like any startup), so there is already a constant expansionary pressure on our regions; for the foreseeable future (years), our regions will tend to have significantly more servers than a scheduler would tell us we needed. Whatever we save in power costs by keeping some of those servers powered off, we lose in technical operational costs by keeping the rest of the servers running artificially hot.
