Illustrated is a system and method for executing a checkpoint scheme as part of processing a workload using an application. The system and method also includes identifying a checkpoint event that requires an additional checkpoint scheme. The system and method includes retrieving checkpoint data associated with the checkpoint event. It also includes building a checkpoint model based upon the checkpoint data. The system and method further includes identifying the additional checkpoint scheme, based upon the checkpoint model, the additional checkpoint scheme to be executed as part of the processing of the workload using the application.
