Add Thrift interface to JobTracker/TaskTracker
----------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-5703
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5703
Project: Hadoop Core
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: contrib/thiftfs
Reporter: Todd Lipcon
Assignee: Todd Lipcon
We currently have Thrift interfaces for accessing the NN and the DFS, but no
access to the Mapred system. I'm currently working on instrumenting the JT with
a Thrift plugin. If anyone has any thoughts in this area, please comment on
this JIRA.
Open questions:
* Is job submission a practical goal to accomplish via Thrift? My thought is
that this might be a goal for a second JIRA after basic monitoring/reporting is
working.
* Does this belong in contrib/thriftfs? I propose renaming contrib/thriftfs to
contrib/thrift, as it will no longer be FS-specific.
