Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on YARN-1390:
-----------------------------------------------
Don't see the point of multiple appTypes.
A Pig query is a pig query and jobs spawned for a Pig query should be of type
Pig. I think the problem is that MR hardcodes the app-type. If we change that
to be pluggable, then it should be enough for you?
Please change the title to reflect your requirement and not the solution. Tx.

> Key: YARN-1390
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1390
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: api
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: Karthik Kambatla
> Assignee: Karthik Kambatla
>
> In addition to other fields like application-type (added in YARN-563), it is
> useful to have an applicationSource field to track the source of an
> application. The application source can be useful in (1) fetching only those
> applications a user is interested in, (2) potentially adding source-specific
> optimizations in the future.
> Examples of sources are: User-defined project names, Pig, Hive, Oozie, Sqoop
> etc.
