Pramod Immaneni commented on APEXCORE-796:
------------------------------------------
Yes, this Jira does not require YARN independence but my goal is to support
docker via a kubernetes port and add an abstraction in apex to be able to run
on both cluster managers by having an independent layer and cluster-specific
implementations, hence the reference to APEXCORE-724 in the comment. Agreed it
is a substantial effort and I will propose a plan.
It is possible to add support for docker in apex to run under YARN, by
enhancing apex cli etc and using functionality like you mentioned at runtime,
but I am not sure how much usage it will get. I think docker will be more used
with a kubernetes runtime.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXCORE-796
> Project: Apache Apex Core
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Thomas Weise
> Priority: Major
> Labels: roadmap
>
> Apex should support deployment using Docker as alternative to application
> packages. Docker images provide a simple and standard way to package
> dependencies and solve isolation from the host environment. This will be
> particularly helpful when applications depend on native, non-JVM packages
> like Python and R, that otherwise need to be installed separately. Docker
> support will also be a step towards supporting other cluster managers like
> Kubernetes, Mesos and Swarm.
