Nicholas Chammas commented on SPARK-3821:
-----------------------------------------

Thanks for taking a look [~danospv]. Looking forward to your feedback.

Keeping the fully-baked AMIs could totally work. The current scripts allow the 
image creation to be fully automated. We may need some more tooling around 
image management (e.g. like [{{delete-all-registered-spark-amis.py}} | 
https://github.com/nchammas/spark-ec2/blob/packer/packer/delete-all-registered-spark-amis.py]),
 and we will need to maintain the image library we build up.

So it's probably just a question of whether we are ready to accept the 
maintenance / tooling burden at this time, though it's totally feasible.

> Right now the creation of Spark AMIs or Docker containers is done manually. 
> With tools like [Packer|http://www.packer.io/], we should be able to automate 
> this work, and do so in such a way that multiple types of machine images can 
> be created from a single template.
