Various examples are directed to systems and methods for executing a computing job at a computing node of a distributed computing system. A node controller may receive computing job request data from a system controller. The node controller may send job start data to a shared resource provider. The shared resource provider may mount a shared resource for the computing job indicated by the computing job request data. The node controller may send a heartbeat message to the system controller and receive from the system controller an acknowledgement message referencing the heartbeat message. The system controller may send to the shared resource provider, a job stop command. In response to the job stop command, the shared resource provider may dismount the shared resource.
