Description

YARN services both short and long lived can benefit from a resource repo rather than packaging resources within the YARN client to be extracted and used by the Application Master and (later) the containers. Standardizing a resource repo will provide performance benefits as well. The repo should be similar to maven or ivy repo's so discovery and versioning are built-in.
