Hi Nirav, Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I think idea of reuse notebook make sense.
One possible idea about resuing notebook, is extend current z.run(PRARAGRAPH_ID) [1] which works for paragraphs only in the same note, to z.run(NOTE_ID) or z.run(PARAGRAPH_ID) which works any note or paragraph in the other note. Deploy notebook in production, there're two approaches. One is improve REST api from external application, the other is enhance Zeppelin's job scheduler. I think both valid approach.
