-----------------------------------
Summary: Support Docker containers in YARN
Key: YARN-1964
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1964
Project: Hadoop YARN
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Arun C Murthy
Assignee: Arun C Murthy
Docker (https://www.docker.io/) is, increasingly, a very popular container
technology.
In context of YARN, the support for Docker will provide a very elegant solution
to allow applications to *package* their software into a Docker container
(entire Linux file system incl. custom versions of perl, python etc.) and use
it as a blueprint to launch all their YARN containers with requisite software
environment. This provides both consistency (all YARN containers will have the
same software environment) and isolation (no interference with whatever is
installed on the physical machine).
