James DeFelice updated MESOS-2728: ---------------------------------- Description: There are resources which are not provided by a single node. Consider for example a external Network Bandwidth of a cluster. Being a limited resource it makes sense for Mesos to manage it but still it is not a resource being offered by a single node. A cluster-wide resource is still consumed by a task, and when that task completes, the resources are then available to be allocated to another framework/task. Use Cases: 1. Network Bandwidth 2. IP Addresses 3. Global Service Ports 4. Distributed File System Storage 5. Software Licences 6. SAN Volumes was: There are resources which are not provided by a single node.
