Description

This application is to demonstrate that YARN can be used for non-mapreduce applications. As Hadoop has already been adopted and deployed widely and its deployment in future will be highly increased, we thought that it's a good potential to be used as PaaS.
I have implemented a proof of concept to demonstrate that YARN can be used as a PaaS (Platform as a Service). I have done a gap analysis against VMware's Cloud Foundry and tried to achieve as many PaaS functionalities as possible on YARN.

I'd like to check in this POC as a YARN example application.
