What will be a reason to use Apex cli over Launcher API?

Thank you,

Vlad

Slider let's you package the binaries (along with the .apa), so that would eliminate the need for any extra install.

    You might be able to launch the application by running the apex
    cli as a separate process from your slider code and passing the
    apa. The apa could be in hdfs. This would however require apex
    cli to be present on all nodes as your slider code could be
    running on any node on the cluster.

    Thanks

        Yes Thomas thats exactly what we are looking for. But using
        slider is a bit
        trickier since slider manages the deployment of the
        application you give it
        to it. Also as far as I have read, you need to have your whole
        project
        structure as sliders expectation so that it can mange it by
        moving the code
        to containers. Since a regular deployment of Apex just consist
        of moving an
        .apa to some directory on any node in cluster (preferably edge
        node) and
        then launching the application through Apex CLI using launch,
        we are not
        sure as to what will change in terms of handling this task to
        slider

        I am looking for some guidelines or possible sample
        implementation reference
        that can give headstart

        While searching, found this below proposal about Apex which
        does says that
        /'Apache Slider is a YARN application to deploy existing
        distributed
        applications on YARN, monitor them, and make them larger or
        smaller as
        desired even when the application is running. Once Slider
        matures, we will
        take a look at close integration of Apex with Slider.' /

        which made me excited about using slider :)

        Regards
        Vivek
