Abstract: An embodiment includes selecting a job to upload to a remote system, uploading a portion of data for the job to the remote system, and receiving notice that the portion of data for the job has been staged at the remote system. The embodiment also includes, based on the portion of data being staged, instructing the remote system to begin performing operations for the job on the portion of the data, where after the remote system begins to perform the operations for the job on the portion of data prior to all data for the job being uploaded. From an alternate perspective an embodiment includes receiving a description of a job to be performed on data, receiving a portion of the data, receiving an instruction to begin performing computations on the portion of data, and beginning to perform identified computations on the portion of data before receiving all the data.

Abstract: Moving data to a remote system and performing computations at the remote system. A method includes receiving from one or more users a plurality jobs. The one or more jobs specify both data to be operated on and the operations to be performed on the data at the remote system. At a data service, one of the jobs to upload to the remote system in priority over other jobs in the plurality of jobs is selected. The method further includes beginning to upload the prioritized job including staging data from the job. At the remote system, once a portion of the data has been received, a service in the remote system begins to perform the specified operation on the data for the prioritized job. Beginning to perform the specified operation is performed prior to all of the data from the prioritized job being uploaded to the remote system.
