Abin Shahab commented on YARN-1983:
-----------------------------------
Right, there maybe other, better alternatives. What kinds of extensibility are
we supporting here? What kind of containers will YARN be able to support? What
kind of configurations would these need?
>From the answers to these questions we can start talking about the
>abstractions needed to let Yarn launch all kinds of containers.
> Support heterogeneous container types at runtime on YARN

> Key: YARN-1983
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1983
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Junping Du
>
> Different container types (default, LXC, docker, VM box, etc.) have different
> semantics on isolation of security, namespace/env, performance, etc.
> Per discussions in YARN-1964, we have some good thoughts on supporting
> different types of containers running on YARN and specified by application at
> runtime which largely enhance YARN's flexibility to meet heterogenous app's
> requirement on isolation at runtime.
