Chad Metcalf commented on WHIRR-255:
------------------------------------

It sure does. My concern is that abstracting a fully working master is a lot to 
bite off. For example we use exported resources very common especially for 
Hadoop clusters that would use monitoring (nagios) or security (kerberos). So 
now you've got to deploy a database.

I agree 100% that puppet is great for a mechanism that can be used to manage a 
cluster not only at deployment but in the future. My point was to build start 
even more simple. Have the capability to use masterless or point to a master. 
Then once that is working if you've time/use for it tackle building a master 
from scratch.

Also from my use case, I've already got a master in ec2 that I can point this 
to. The above allows for that as well as building your own.
