Luke Lu commented on HADOOP-7532: --------------------------------- bq. Should be supporting a GUI ON the Application Master at all? Yes. see my response in MAPREDUCE-2858 for reasons. bq. Having a GUI run on a separate box from the AM (even on a Gateway if the user wants to have new and innovative visualizations) I think keeps our priorities straight and offers a lot of flexibility. This is just trying to punt the webapp/UI management to Hadoop users. As I said MAPREDUCE-2858, this is clearly not scalable and not secure (you can't just link to an arbitrary webapp in RM app list). It's an operations nightmare to let users to run arbitrary web UI on a gateway. With MRv2, Hadoop becomes a fairly general purpose cloud operating system, running per user/version web UI in a scalable and secure manner is a major advantage/feature that we should not shy away from. > Hadoop web UI 2.0 > ----------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7532 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7532 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.23.0 > Reporter: Luke Lu > Assignee: Luke Lu > Fix For: 0.23.0 > > > People have expressed interests of bringing Hadoop web UI up to date with the > lightweight embedded web mvc framework used in MAPREDUCE-279 (cf. > MAPREDUCE-2399).
