based job submission corresponding to a knowledge of the operation of the job scheduler the system analyzes as much metadata as possible about the workload being submitted prior to the workload being submitted to the intended scheduler the system provides a job routing mechanism coupled with a scheduler monitoring solution that can account for a flexible number of environment parameters to make a corresponding decision about job routing or workload distribution between a local or set of remote clusters or schedulers that are set forth in a routing table the system provides automated remote access to perform seamless without requiring submitter action input data transfer remote command execution and job monitoring once the job routing decision is made the system provides for a set of jobs to be run on multiple heterogeneous environments and transparently deposit the results in a consolidated area when complete without requiring performance related input other than the job from the user a system is provided for submitting a workload having associated metadata within a cloud computing environment wherein the behavior of a scheduler based job submission is mimicked corresponding to the knowledge of an operation of the job scheduler at least a portion of the available metadata corresponding to the submitted workload job before moving the job to an intender scheduler in select configurations the portion of the metadata is analyzed to determine the processing of the workload or job it is contemplated that a job routing mechanism can be coupled with a scheduler monitoring solution that can account for a flexible number of environment parameters to make a real time decision about job or workload routing between a local set of remote clusters.
