Robert Joseph Evans commented on MAPREDUCE-3028:
------------------------------------------------

@Alejandro, OK I agree completely that an RSS like feed for reporting which 
jobs have completed is preferable, so long as we can make it so there is 
relatively little load on the system even when polling multiple times a second.

But if we remove the notification all together there may be other applications 
relying on this functionality that fail.  I would prefer to see both go in, and 
we deprecate the push.  This would give users time to move off of it.

Also the delay is not that bad if it is the application master that is sending 
the notification.  The issue with the delay before was primarily caused by the 
notification being single threaded.  If one application failed with a 60sec 
time out then the other notifications started to pile up behind it.  This would 
still be bad for a map/reduce job to pause 60 seconds for the notification to 
go through, especially with retry, but it would not impact any other 
applications not connected to it.

> Oozie primarily depends on  the job end notification to determine when the 
> job finishes. In the current version,  job end notification is implemented in 
> job tracker. Since job tracker will be removed in the upcoming hadoop release 
> (.next), we wander where this support will move. I think this best effort 
> notification could be implemented in the new Application Manager as one of 
> the last step of job completion.
> Whatever implementation will it be, Oozie badly needs this feature to be 
> continued in next releases as well.
