             Summary: Replace AsyncRDDActions with a more general async. API
                 Key: SPARK-3626
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3626
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Spark Core
            Reporter: Josh Rosen
            Assignee: Josh Rosen


The experimental AsyncRDDActions APIs seem to only exist in order to enable job 
cancellation.

We've been considering extending these APIs to support progress monitoring, but 
this would require stabilizing them so they're no longer {{@Experimental}}.

Instead, I propose to replace all of the AsyncRDDActions with a mechanism based 
on job groups which allows arbitrary computations to be run in job groups and 
supports cancellation / monitoring of Spark jobs launched from those 
computations.

(full design pending; see my GitHub PR for more details).
