             Summary: Interpreter Idle timeout
                 Key: ZEPPELIN-2197
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-2197
             Project: Zeppelin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core, Interpreters
    Affects Versions: 0.7.0
            Reporter: Ruslan Dautkhanov


It would be great to have ability to set Interpreter idle timeout - globally or 
per interpreter. So if interpreter isn't used for X amount of time, it'll be 
killed. 

Some of our users leave their Zeppelin instances idle and not used for days - 
that's great that they can jump right where they left off. Although in many 
cases we would like to kill just the interpreter processes (so the Zeppelin 
itself is still running). 

For example, for Spark Interpreter it also leaves idle spark applications that 
is consuming yarn resources. We do use yarn dynamic allocation but can't set 
spark.dynamicAllocation.minExecutors to 0.

In our cases idle timeout for interpreters should be somewhere between 12 and 
24 hours. So if a specific interpreter process was idle (not used) for that 
time, it'll be terminated.

As a nice side effect of this feature, if idle timeout timer will be set in an 
interpreter process itself, it may also help in issues like ZEPPELIN-1832 .

Thoughts?
