             Summary: Eliminate fair sharing between frameworks within a role.
                 Key: MESOS-7136
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-7136
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Epic
          Components: allocation, technical debt
            Reporter: Benjamin Mahler


The current fair sharing algorithm performs fair sharing between frameworks 
within a role. This is equivalent to having the framework id behave as a 
pseudo-role beneath the role. Consider the case where there are two spark 
frameworks running within the same "spark" role. This behaves similarly to 
hierarchical roles with the framework ID acting as an implicit role:

{noformat}
                         ^
                       /   \
                  spark     services
                    ^
                  /   \
                /       \
    FrameworkId1         FrameworkId2
(fixed weight of 1)    (fixed weight of 1)
{noformat}

Unfortunately, the frameworks cannot change their weight to be a value other 
than 1 (see MESOS-6247) and they cannot set quota.

With the addition of hierarchical roles (see MESOS-6375) we can eliminate the 
notion of the framework ID acting as a pseudo-role in favor of explicitly using 
hierarchical roles. E.g.

{noformat}
                         ^
                       /   \
                    eng    sales
                    ^
                  /   \
         analytics     ui
             ^
           /   \
   learning     reports
{noformat}

Here if two frameworks run within the eng/analytics role, then they will 
compete for resources without fair sharing. However, if resource guarantees are 
required, sub-roles can be created explicitly, e.g. eng/analytics/learning and 
eng/analytics/reports. These roles can be given weights and quota.
