> It may be useful to specify the DAG using a text format (eg. xml). A generic translator could be written to turn this into a DAG via the Java Tez API.
> Benefits
> 1) Lowers bar for entry. Allow people to specify jobs without writing or compiling code
> 2) De-couples the user language from the Tez library language. Allows non-Java front ends that could translate to the text format.
