Brock Noland created HIVE-7768: ---------------------------------- Summary: Research growing/shrinking our Spark Application Key: HIVE-7768 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7768 Project: Hive Issue Type: Sub-task Reporter: Brock Noland
Similar to Tez, it's likely our "SparkContext" is going to be long lived and process many queries. Some queries will be large and some small. Additionally the SC might be idle for long periods of time. In this JIRA we will research the following: * How Spark decides the number of slaves for a given RDD today * Given a SC when you create a new RDD based on a much larger input dataset, does the SC adjust? * How Tez increases/decreases the size of the running YARN application (set of slaves) * How Tez handles scenarios when it has a running set of slaves in YARN and requests more resources for a query and fails to get additional resources * How Tez decides to timeout idle slaves This will guide requirements we'll need from YARN. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
