Eugene Kirpichov commented on BEAM-673: --------------------------------------- On second thought, this might be related to SDF: processing different restrictions of the same element may have different requirements. Or more like: a design for DoFn's giving hints to runners about their resource requirements would need to include some data dependence. I don't have a good idea about how to express it in a way that will be modular and will combine well with the rest of the Beam model and various tricks runners are allowed to do (such as fusion or materialization). > Data locality for Read.Bounded > ------------------------------ > > Key: BEAM-673 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-673 > Project: Beam > Issue Type: Bug > Components: runner-spark > Reporter: Amit Sela > Assignee: Ismaël Mejía > Fix For: First stable release > > > In some distributed filesystems, such as HDFS, we should be able to hint to > Spark the preferred locations of splits. > Here is an example of how Spark does that for Hadoop RDDs: > https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/branch-1.6/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/rdd/NewHadoopRDD.scala#L249 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
