------------------------------------
    Summary: Spark API for Application Extensions  (was: Spark API for Embedded 
Applications)

> Spark API for Application Extensions
> ------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-3270
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3270
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Spark Core
>            Reporter: Michal Malohlava
>
> At the begining, let's clarify my motivation - I would like to extend Spark 
> platform by an embedded application (e.g., monitoring network performance in 
> the context of selected applications) which will be launched on particular 
> nodes in cluster with their launch.
> Nevertheless, I do not want to modify Spark code directly and hardcode my 
> code in, but I would prefer to provide a jar which would be registered and 
> launched by Spark itself. 
> Hence, to support such 3rd party applications (aka "extesions"/"plugins") 
> Spark platform should provide at least:
>   - an API to register an extension 
>   - an API to register a "service" (meaning provided functionality)
>   - well-defined points in Spark infrastructure which can be enriched/hooked 
> by extension
>      - in master/worker lifecycle
>      - in applications lifecycle
>      - in RDDs lifecycle
>      - monitoring/reporting
>      - ...
>   - a way of deploying extension (for example, simply putting the extension 
> on classpath and using Java service interface)
> In this context, I do not mean reinventing OSGi (or another plugin platform) 
> but it can serve as a good starting point.
