    Hey @harishreedharan thanks for submitting, but like to close this PR for 
now pending a more complete design proposal about how external implementations 
of the block storage service would work. There are a bunch of other challenges 
in decoupling the block storage service from the SparkContext... it's 
definitely an interesting idea longer term but one that would need a thorough 
design and consensus. If we make this pluggable it will signal to the community 
that we want to head down this direction, so I'd propose getting a consensus on 
that before proceeding.
    
    For streaming specifically I know you and @tdas are working on some more 
specific mechanisms to provide H/A in that case.
