Opportunistic data analytics using memory bandwidth in disaggregated computing systems

Various embodiments for optimizing memory bandwidth in a disaggregated computing system, by a processor device, are provided. Respective memory devices are assigned to respective processor devices in the disaggregated computing system, the disaggregated computing system having at least a pool of the memory devices and a pool of the processor devices. An analytic function is performed on data resident in the pool of the memory devices using memory bandwidth not currently committed to a primary compute task.
