Optimizing Resource Scheduling for Amazon EMR on EKS with Apache YuniKorn Batch Scheduler

Apache YuniKorn is a custom resource scheduler designed for big data and machine learning workloads on Kubernetes. It addresses limitations in the default kube-scheduler by offering features like gang scheduling, resource fairness, and queue management. Deploying YuniKorn on Amazon EMR on EKS can improve resource utilization rates, reduce job completion times, and provide improved resource allocation for multi-tenant clusters.
