A cloud affinity factor (CAF) computer model is trained, via a machine learning process based on a training dataset comprising static characteristics of a workload binary for a workload, and dynamic characteristics corresponding to historical performance data for the workload, such that the trained CAF computer model predicts a performance classification for a given workload binary.

Node affinity and dispatch rule(s) are applied to the cloud affinity factor(s) to select one or more nodes of the cloud computing system to which to dispatch the workload. The workload is then scheduled on the selected one or more nodes.

Abstract: A one-pot method is used to prepare a fused pyrazole-type compound substituted at nitrogen on 2-position, specifically an indazole-type compound substituted at nitrogen on 2-position. In the method, after azidizing a halogen in a substrate, without post-processing, R-NH2 can be directly added to proceed a ring-closing reaction with an aldehyde group, so as to give the fused pyrazole-type compound substituted at nitrogen on 2-position. For example, by using 2-fluoro-4 methoxy-5-nitro benzaldehyde as a raw material, the indazole-type compound substituted at nitrogen on 2-position can be obtained via azidation and ring-closing steps, and then a series of indazole derivatives can be produced by means of a hydrogenation reaction and a condensation reaction.
