We are running Mesos entirely without HDFS with no problems. We use Docker to distribute our application to slave nodes, and keep no state on individual nodes.
Background: I'm building up a 3 node cluster to run mesos and spark. No legacy Hadoop needed or wanted. I am using btrfs for the local file system, with (2) drives set up for raid1 on each system.
So you are suggesting that I can install mesos + spark + docker and not a DFS on these (3) machines? Will I need any other softwares? My application is a geophysical fluid simulator, so scala, R, and all sorts of advanced math will be required on the cluster for the Finite Element Methods. James
