Great, add that feature to spark-submit, everybody benefits, not just k8s. > 2. The ability to use credentials that are not shared with the main > containers. Not sure what that achieves. > 3.

Executor will fail if dependency download fails, Spark driver will recover (and start a new executor if needed). > 4.

Again, I don't see what is all this hoopla about fine grained control of dependency downloads. Spark solved this years ago for Spark applications. Don't reinvent the wheel. -- Marcelo --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org
