-----------------------------------

Thanks for starting this [~leftnoteasy] !! would love to help out / contribute..

bq. Because only application knows which node is best for its pending resource 
requests, so we can sort and filter node candidates based on application's 
resource-requests.
I agree.. generally.. but I am thinking that *relational* constraints 
(constraints that govern placement / grouping of containers belonging to 
multiple apps. for. eg : containers of HBase and Storm app to be grouped 
together. *together* can be a relaxed constraint like : within same node, rack 
or ANY) should maybe be expressed via an API decoupled from the applications 
ResourceRequest. It will also help solve problems where two apps give 
contradicting constraints.. for eg. RR from HBase app allocate() call says 
"allocate container with affinity to containers from Storm App" and RR from 
Storm app says "allocate container with ANTI-affinity to Hbase containers".

But in any case, even if what I stated above were a separate API, I still like 
your concept of NodeCandidates. Since it essentially is a filter, and we should 
be able to compose the ResourceRequests constraints with relational 
constraints. Also, as [~kasha] mentioned, it would be nice to have the 
{{ClusterNodeTracker}} expose an API that takes a {{NodeCandidate}} and returns 
a list of nodes.

> Existing YARN scheduler is based on node heartbeat. This can lead to 
> sub-optimal decisions because scheduler can only look at one node at the time 
> when scheduling resources.
> Pseudo code of existing scheduling logic looks like:
> {code}
> for node in allNodes:
>    Go to parentQueue
>       Go to leafQueue
>         for application in leafQueue.applications:
>            for resource-request in application.resource-requests
>               try to schedule on node
> {code}
> Considering future complex resource placement requirements, such as node 
> constraints (give me "a && b || c") or anti-affinity (do not allocate HBase 
> regionsevers and Storm workers on the same host), we may need to consider 
> moving YARN scheduler towards global scheduling.
