Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on YARN-1492:
-----------------------------------------------
Technical issue. This should be a YARN JIRA. As YARN handles distributed cache,
it makes sense to have this discussion here. I don't follow the common lists
much and I almost missed this (it's possible others too missed it because of
that). If/when we create a branch, let's create it with a YARN JIRA number.
I just moved the JIRA to YARN. Let me know if you disagree.
> truly shared cache for jars (jobjar/libjar)

> Key: YARN-1492

> Currently there is the distributed cache that enables you to cache jars and
> files so that attempts from the same job can reuse them. However, sharing is
> limited with the distributed cache because it is normally on a per-job basis.
> On a large cluster, sometimes copying of jobjars and libjars becomes so
> prevalent that it consumes a large portion of the network bandwidth, not to
> speak of defeating the purpose of "bringing compute to where data is". This
> is wasteful because in most cases code doesn't change much across many jobs.
> I'd like to propose and discuss feasibility of introducing a truly shared
> cache so that multiple jobs from multiple users can share and cache jars.
> This JIRA is to open the discussion.
