storm-yarn was originally done as a proof of concept. We had plans to take it further, but the amount of work required to make it production ready on a very heavily used cluster was more then we were willing to invest at the time. Most of that work was around network scheduling, isolation and prioritization, mainly in YARN itself. There has been some work looking into this, but nothing much has happened with it. At the same time http://slider.incubator.apache.org/ showed up and is now the preferred way to run Storm on YARN. To get around the networking issues most people will tag a subset of their cluster, a few racks, and only schedule storm to run on those nodes. Long term I really would like to revive storm on yarn, and integrate it directly into storm. Giving storm and the scheduler the ability to request new resources with specific constraints opens up a lot of new possibilities. If you want to help out, or if anyone else wants to help out with this work, I would be very happy to file some JIRA in open source and help direct what needs to be done. - Bobby

I was looking at the yahoo project https://github.com/yahoo/storm-yarn, and I could observed that there is no activity since 7 months ago. Also, the issues and requests lists are not updated.Therefore I have some questions:1. Is there any plan to evolve this project?2. Is there any plan to integrate this project in the main branch?3. Is someone using this approach in production ready mode? I look forward for your answers. Regards, Florin
