Last week, two projects in the Apache Aurora[1] / Mesos ecosystem were open sourced that I wanted to make sure folks are aware of.
*aurproxy* https://github.com/tellapart/aurproxy "aurproxy is a load balancer manager with knowledge of Apache Aurora's service discovery mechanism and integration with Aurora's task lifecycle. It is a python application that runs inside of a docker container, where it manages a fully featured but not Aurora-aware load balancer (currently only nginx is supported). When Aurora service discovery events occur, aurproxy detects them, rewrites the load balancer's configuration file and then triggers a graceful restart of the load balancer. Use aurproxy to expose dynamic Aurora service endpoints to services and applications that don't have knowledge of Aurora's service discovery mechanism." *Jobhopper for Aurora* https://github.com/benley/aurora-jobhopper "Jobhopper is a simple http redirector daemon designed to make it easy and convenient for developers and administrators to navigate directly to any running Aurora job on your Mesos cluster from your browser's address bar." It's great to a growing number of projects that are powered by Aurora and Mesos. Thanks to the TellApart team (including Thanos Baskous) and Benjamin Staffin for sharing these with the community!
