             Summary: Adding feedback capability to capacity scheduler from 
external systems
                 Key: YARN-2670
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2670
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Mayank Bansal
            Assignee: Mayank Bansal


The sheer growth in data volume and Hadoop cluster size make it a significant 
challenge to diagnose and locate problems in a production-level cluster 
environment efficiently and within a short period of time. Often times, the 
distributed monitoring systems are not capable of detecting a problem well in 
advance when a large-scale Hadoop cluster starts to deteriorate in performance 
or becomes unavailable. Thus, incoming workloads, scheduled between the time 
when cluster starts to deteriorate and the time when the problem is identified, 
suffer from longer execution times. As a result, both reliability and 
throughput of the cluster reduce significantly. we address this problem by 
proposing a system called Astro, which consists of a predictive model and an 
extension to the Capacity scheduler. The predictive model in Astro takes into 
account a rich set of cluster behavioral information that are collected by 
monitoring processes and model them using machine learning algorithms to 
predict future behavior of the cluster. The Astro predictive model detects 
anomalies in the cluster and also identifies a ranked set of metrics that have 
contributed the most towards the problem. The Astro scheduler uses the 
prediction outcome and the list of metrics to decide whether it needs to move 
and reduce workloads from the problematic cluster nodes or to prevent 
additional workload allocations to them, in order to improve both throughput 
and reliability of the cluster.

This JIRA is only for adding feedback capabilities to Capacity Scheduler which 
can take feedback from external systems.
