Junping Du commented on YARN-1964:
----------------------------------
bq. I'd suggest this JIRA be renamed: Is it specifically to create a
DockerLinuxContainer ? Or is it broader. After all... Docker itself is a
"container" and YARN itself is a container, and YARN can run inside of docker,
and Multiple NM's can be launched as docker processes, and so on... so I think
the exact task of this JIRA should be clarified.
Agree with [~ashahab] that we should make this JIRA's scope focus on Docker
implementation. For more broader topics on supporting heterogenous containers
in runtime, [~leftnoteasy], [~jayunit100], how about we go further discussion
in a separated JIRA? - I just filed YARN-1983 for that.

> 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).
