Abhijit Suresh Shingate commented on MAPREDUCE-2648:
----------------------------------------------------
To add,
We tested this solution on a 100 node cluster and 1000 Jobs, it was measured
that STANDBY JobTracker can detect the failure of ACTIVE JobTracker and becomes
ACTIVE and starts serving requests in less than 1 minute. This includes failure
detection time also.
It will be useful for the organizations which are already using hadoop in
production environment.

> In Hadoop cluster, JobTracker is responsible for managing the life cycle of
> MapReduce jobs. If JobTracker fails, then MapReduce service will not be
> available until JobTracker is restarted. We propose an automatic failover
> solution for JobTracker to address such single point of failure. It is based
> on Leader Election Framework suggested in ZOOKEEPER-1080
> Please refer to attached document.
