Sandy Ryza updated SPARK-3561:
------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently Spark's API is tightly coupled with its backend execution engine.   
It could be useful to provide a point of pluggability between the two to allow 
Spark to run on other DAG execution engines with similar distributed memory 
abstractions.

Proposal:
The proposed approach would introduce a pluggable JobExecutionContext (trait) - 
as a non-public api (@DeveloperAPI) not exposed to end users of Spark.
The trait will define 4 only operations:
* hadoopFile
* newAPIHadoopFile
* broadcast
* runJob

Each method directly maps to the corresponding methods in current version of 
SparkContext. JobExecutionContext implementation will be accessed by 
SparkContext via master URL as 
"execution-context:foo.bar.MyJobExecutionContext" with default implementation 
containing the existing code from SparkContext, thus allowing current 
(corresponding) methods of SparkContext to delegate to such implementation. An 
integrator will now have an option to provide custom implementation of 
DefaultExecutionContext by either implementing it from scratch or extending 
form DefaultExecutionContext.

Please see the attached design doc for more details.
Pull Request will be posted shortly as well
