Siddharth Seth commented on YARN-710:
-------------------------------------

bq. Sid, what would be 'relevant' Yarn records? I would say, this should be 
avail for all records. I'm OK moving the write()/read() methods to another 
class, RecordIOUtils
Should a YARN utility provide serialization for records like 
StartContainerRequest, AllocateResponse (temporary data) ?

bq. Mmhhh, or ... as this is highly coupled to the RecordFactory in use. Why 
not have this in the RecordFactory as the current patch, and as part of 
YARN-711 a public proxy class is put in place using the current RecordFactory? 
Then if you use a different RecordFactory, things will work as expected.
YARN-711, IMO, is not the best place to do this - that deals with how YARN 
records are created from their individual arguments. The current implementation 
is tightly coupled with the RecordFactory being used, but doesn't necessarily 
need to be. I think we need to decide whether this will be a blanket 
serialization mechanism for all YARN records, or a selective set.

> I order to do things like AMs failover and checkpointing I need to serialize 
> app IDs, app attempt IDs, containers and/or IDs,  resource requests, etc.
> Because we are wrapping/hiding the PB implementation from the APIs, we are 
> hiding the built in PB ser/deser capabilities.
