----------------------------------
Summary: MasterContender/MasterDetector should be loadable as
modules
Key: MESOS-4610
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-4610
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: master
Reporter: Mark Cavage
Currently mesos depends on Zookeeper for leader election and notification to
slaves, although there is a C++ hierarchy in the code to support alternatives
(e.g., unit tests use an in-memory implementation). From an operational
perspective, many organizations/users do not want to take a dependency on
Zookeeper, and use an alternative solution to implementing leader election. Our
organization in particular, very much wants this, and as a reference there have
been several requests from the community (see referenced tickets) to replace
with etcd/consul/etc.
This ticket will serve as the work effort to modularize the
MasterContender/MasterDetector APIs such that integrators can build a pluggable
solution of their choice; this ticket will not fold in any implementations such
as etcd et al., but simply move this hierarchy to be fully pluggable.
