>
> One of the things that was never implemented in the resource manager is the
> return of a resource manager Job's Output in a flexible format (e.g.,
> different Job's should be able to return different JobOutputs). This
> particular feature is important, say in the case where the WorkflowTasks
> within a Workflow depend on their shared Metadata context being updated and
> still fresh, even though the WorkflowTask's are now distributed, and not run
> on a single host anymore.
> Prior to the resource manager, since all Workflow's were run on a single host
> (in a multi-threaded fashion, but still on a single host), the Metadata
> context shared between WorkflowTasks was always updated and kept fresh
> because all WorkflowTasks had access to it, because all WorkflowTasks were
> running in the same Java Virtual Machine. Now with the WorkflowTask's being
> distributed, when a distributed WorkflowTask updates its Metadata context,
> those changes need to be propagated back to the Workflow manager so that it
> can allow other subsequent WorkflowTasks to use the (possibly) new values
> within the Metadata.
> This patch will define a JobOutput interface, and make an instance of that
> interface the return value from the execution of a Resource Manager job.
> Another, separate, patch will provide a WorkflowJobOutput class for the
> Workflow manager, so that it can obtain the property output from its
> WorkflowTasks.
