Hi,
Alluxio allows for data sharing between applications through a File System
API (Native Java Alluxio client, Hadoop FileSystem, or POSIX through fuse).
If your MPI applications can use any of these interfaces, you should be
able to use Alluxio for data sharing out of the box.
In terms of
Do Ignite and Alluxio offer reasonable means of transferring data, in memory,
from Spark to MPI? A straightforward way to transfer data is use piping, but
unless you have MPI processes running in a one-to-one mapping to the Spark
partitions, this will require some complicated logic to get working
