# Mutually Exclusive Pods Uniformly Distributed Scheduling

## Background

> [issues 1418](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/karpenter/issues/1418)
I have 10 pending pods:

- **pod1**: 1c1g requests, with anti-affinity; cannot be scheduled on the same node as pod10 and pod9.
- **pod2 ~ pod8**: 1c1g requests; no anti-affinity is configured.
- **pod9**: 1c1g requests, with anti-affinity; cannot be scheduled on the same node as pod1 and pod10.
- **pod10**: 1c1g requests, with anti-affinity; cannot be scheduled on the same node as pod1 and pod9.

In Karpenter, it creates three nodes, with the first node being super large and the remaining two being very small:

- **node1**: c7a.4xlarge, 16c32g (8Pods)
- **node2**: c7a.large, 2c4g (1Pod)
- **node3**: c7a.large, 2c4g (1Pod)

**Expected Behavior**:
I want the resources of the three nodes to be evenly distributed, like:

- **node1**: c7a.4xlarge, 8c16g (4Pod)
- **node2**: c7a.xlarge, 4c8g (3Pod)
- **node3**: c7a.xlarge, 4c8g (3Pod)

In this situation, the cluster will be more stable (e.g., draining one node will not cause most pods to be rescheduled).

## Solutions

By sorting in byCPUAndMemoryDescending, pods with the same specifications (cpu or memory request equal) and mutually exclusive pods (with PodAntiAffinity or TopologySpreadConstraints) are prioritized to be scheduled first.

Code implementation: [pull 1548](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/karpenter/pull/1548)

Pros/Cons

- 👍👍 Simple implementation effort
