Data-aware scheduling allows Platform Symphony to intelligently schedule application tasks and improve performance by taking into account data location when dispatching the tasks. By directing tasks to resources that already contain the required data, application runtimes can be significantly reduced. As well, this feature can help to meet the challenges of latency requirements for real time applications.
