Reynold Xin commented on SPARK-3215:
------------------------------------

I looked at the document. The high level proposal looks good. Can you update 
the document to include more details? In particular, a few things that are 
important to define are:

1. Interface for "Future"
2. Full interface for RemoteClient, including how to initialize it for 
different cluster mgr backends, how to add application jars
3. The RPC protocol between client/server: transport protocol, frameworks to 
use, version compatibility, etc
4. Project organization: should this module be in core, or should we create a 
new module in Spark (e.g. SparkContextClient module?)

> A quick description of the issue: as part of running Hive jobs on top of 
> Spark, it's desirable to have a SparkContext that is running in the 
> background and listening for job requests for a particular user session.
> Running multiple contexts in the same JVM is not a very good solution. Not 
> only SparkContext currently has issues sharing the same JVM among multiple 
> instances, but that turns the JVM running the contexts into a huge bottleneck 
> in the system.
> So I'm proposing a solution where we have a SparkContext that is running in a 
> separate process, and listening for requests from the client application via 
> some RPC interface (most probably Akka).
> I'll attach a document shortly with the current proposal. Let's use this bug 
> to discuss the proposal and any other suggestions.
