KubeBalancer

A resource allocation system inspired by economic bidding markets, where workloads compete for CPU and memory resources based on priority-based bidding. Higher priority workloads get preferential access to resources, similar to how higher bids win in an auction.

Rules:

• Priority: 1-100 (higher wins)
• Resources: CPU/memory > 0
• Names: Unique required
• Ties: First-come wins

Run

# Build and run 
CGO_ENABLED=0 go build ./cmd/main.go
./main -cpu 100 -memory 2048 -port 8080 -debug

# Submit workload
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/workloads \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "test1", "cpu": 10, "memory": 512, "priority": 50}'

Testing

CGO_ENABLED=0 go test -v ./...

Status

Core:

• Priority-based allocation (1-100 scale)
• Resource validation (CPU/memory > 0)
• HTTP API endpoints (POST /workloads)
• Buffered bid queue (100 capacity)
• Graceful server shutdown

In Progress:

• Error handling (timeout management)
• Performance (bid processing optimization)
• Resource tracking (allocation monitoring)
• Server lifecycle (port conflict handling)

Future:

• Kubernetes integration (CRDs, scheduler)
• Monitoring (metrics, logging)
• Scaling (multi-node, auto-scaling)
• Security (authentication, authorization)
