Abstract: With the growing adaption of the containerisation idea, cloud environments are being stuffed with the containers to gain the business, technical and user benefits of both the cloud idea and the containerisation paradigm. Due to the lightweight nature of containers, a cloud centre comprises millions or even billions of containers. This rapid growth of containers in cloud poses several operational and management challenges. The other key problem is to know how optimally allocate different containers for all kinds of incoming tasks on a timely basis. This paper has been prepared based on priority-based resource scheduling approach to fulfil the varying resource requests for business workloads by continuously monitoring the Docker container performance, health condition, and security. Further on, when there is a stream of new tasks waiting for resources, there is also a challenge of how resources can be optimally identified and scheduled in order to fulfil task requests.
