Appreciate all the responses here. I'll look into `mesos-execute`. I was thinking about the framework idea in passing but my mesos knowledge isn't up to scratch yet, so I haven't been able pursue it yet. There are many questions in my mind w.r.t designing this as a framework: * Doesn't a framework only receive offers from mesos and launch tasks? How would a framework kill tasks? Can it also kill slaves? * Is it legal in mesos for one framework to kill tasks belonging to another framework?
Thanks.
