Arun C Murthy commented on KAFKA-1754:
--------------------------------------
bq. My main concern is whether its possible to prevent YARN from spawning new
container when a broker goes down.
[~gwenshap] - YARN doesn't spawn a new container on its own... the Kafka-AM
would get a notification that a particular broker (YARN container) has failed.
The Kafka-AM can then decide when/where to request & launch a new broker.
> KOYA - Kafka on YARN

> Key: KAFKA-1754
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1754
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Thomas Weise
> Attachments: DT-KOYA-Proposal- JIRA.pdf

>
> YARN (Hadoop 2.x) has enabled clusters to be used for a variety of workloads,
> emerging as distributed operating system for big data applications.
> Initiatives are on the way to bring long running services under the YARN
> umbrella, leveraging it for centralized resource management and operations
> ([YARN-896] and examples such as HBase, Accumulo or Memcached through
> Slider). This JIRA is to propose KOYA (Kafka On Yarn), a YARN application
> master to launch and manage Kafka clusters running on YARN. Brokers will use
> resources allocated through YARN with support for recovery, monitoring etc.
> Please see attached for more details.
