Jeff Hammerbacher commented on HADOOP-5703:
-------------------------------------------
Also, perhaps a REST interface for job submission would be easier?
> 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.
