Hitesh Shah commented on TEZ-2003:
----------------------------------
Dup of TEZ-2002 ?
Before breaking down this jira to a set of tasks, would it be possible to first
upload a design and get consensus? Might also be good to call this out on
dev@tez.a.o to get more feedback/discussion.
> [Umbrella] Allow Tez to co-ordinate execution to external services
> ------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TEZ-2003
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEZ-2003
> Project: Apache Tez
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Siddharth Seth
>
> The Tez engine itself takes care of co-ordinating execution - controlling how
> data gets routed (different connection patterns), fault tolerance, scheduling
> of work, etc.
> This is currently tied to TaskSpecs defined within Tez and on containers
> launched by Tez itself (TezChild).
> The proposal is to allow Tez to work with external services instead of just
> containers launched by Tez. This involves several more pluggable layers to
> work with alternate Task Specifications, custom launch and task allocation
> mechanics, as well as custom scheduling sources.
> A simple example would be a simple a process with the capability to execute
> multiple Tez TaskSpecs as threads. In such a case, a container launch isn't
> really need and can be mocked. Sourcing / scheduling containers would need to
> be pluggable.
> A more advanced example would be LLAP (HIVE-7926;
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12665704/LLAPdesigndocument.pdf).
> This works with custom interfaces - which would need to be supported by Tez,
> along with a custom event model which would need translation hooks.
> Tez should be able to work with a combination of certain vertices running in
> external services and others running in regular Tez containers.
