[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-5703) Add Thrift interface to JobTracker/TaskTracker

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5703?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12700368#action_12700368 ] 

Jeff Hammerbacher commented on HADOOP-5703:
-------------------------------------------

Also, perhaps a REST interface for job submission would be easier?

> We currently have Thrift interfaces for accessing the NN and the DFS, but no access to the Mapred system. I'm currently working on instrumenting the JT with a Thrift plugin. If anyone has any thoughts in this area, please comment on this JIRA.
> Open questions:
> * Is job submission a practical goal to accomplish via Thrift? My thought is that this might be a goal for a second JIRA after basic monitoring/reporting is working.
> * Does this belong in contrib/thriftfs? I propose renaming contrib/thriftfs to contrib/thrift, as it will no longer be FS-specific.
