The next Kubernetes Borg/Omega history topic is going to be watch, as a followup to the asynchronous controllers topic, but since there were some scheduling questions due to the 2 recent podcasts, I'll make some comments about "scheduling". First, pedantic terminology

VMs in cloud is just one way to make the infrastructure more elastic. It does introduce a 2nd level of placement with information hiding, though, which is a tradeoff. I'll plug the Omega paper for more on that topic:https://ai.google/research/pubs/pub41684 …

I'll come back to scheduling later in the series to talk about scheduling affinity, anti-affinity, taints, tolerations, forgiveness, and so on, which were straight out of our work on Omega.
