how to design a scalable 'scheduler' app in erlang way

[Oscar]

hi all,

Here are the scheduler's requirements:
1. Scheduler  should receive a lot of requests from other apps.
2. Scheduler  should send the received requests to 'worker' apps.
3. Scheduler  should determine when to send the received requests to
'worker'  apps.

The strategy is:
a. A request depends on something, named *resource*.
b. When *resource* is idle, scheduler sends the request to one worker.
c. When *resource* is busy, scheduler stores the request.

4. Scheduler should be scalable, supporting about 1million tps.


I've implemented it in the shared-state way. TPS is about 100,000, and
'lock' consumes the most CPU time.
Now, I want to implement an erlang version, but have no idea about it.

Shall I store the resource status, pending request to ETS? Will ETS be
a bottleneck?


Thanks,
