Vinay Shukla commented on SPARK-6646:
-------------------------------------

This use case can benefit from running Spark inside a Mobile App Server. An App 
server that takes care of horizontal issues such as security, networking, etc 
will allow Spark to focus on the real hard problem of data processing in a 
lightening fast manner.

There is another idea of using having Spark leverage [parallel quantum 
computing | http://people.csail.mit.edu/nhm/pqc.pdf] but I suppose that calls 
for another JIRA.

>
> Mobile computing is quickly rising to dominance, and by the end of 2017, it 
> is estimated that 90% of CPU cycles will be devoted to mobile hardware. 
> Spark’s project goal can be accomplished only when Spark runs efficiently for 
> the growing population of mobile users.
> Designed and optimized for modern data centers and Big Data applications, 
> Spark is unfortunately not a good fit for mobile computing today. In the past 
> few months, we have been prototyping the feasibility of a mobile-first Spark 
> architecture, and today we would like to share with you our findings. This 
> ticket outlines the technical design of Spark’s mobile support, and shares 
> results from several early prototypes.
> Mobile friendly version of the design doc:
