Shixiong Zhu commented on SPARK-5124: ------------------------------------- 1. For the local Endpoint, let's put it in a future change. 2. RpcCallContext looks good to me. @rxin, thoughts? 3. For `replyWithSender`, I copied my answer in the pr here: For example, RpcEndpoint A calls sendWithReply to send a message to RpcEndpoint B. In B's receiveAndReply, it may have two requirements. Reply to A but don't need a reply. It means, the replied message should be sent to receive method of A. (reply) Reply to A but need a reply. It means, the replied message should be sent to receiveAndReply method of A. (replyWithSender) That's why here we need two methods. > Standardize internal RPC interface > ---------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-5124 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5124 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Spark Core > Reporter: Reynold Xin > Assignee: Shixiong Zhu > Attachments: Pluggable RPC - draft 1.pdf, Pluggable RPC - draft 2.pdf > > > In Spark we use Akka as the RPC layer.
