[jira] [Created] (SAMZA-719) Auto-scaling containers in Samza

Shadi A. Noghabi created SAMZA-719:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Auto-scaling containers in Samza
                 Key: SAMZA-719
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA-719
             Project: Samza
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Shadi A. Noghabi
            Assignee: Shadi A. Noghabi


Currently, a fixed number of containers is assigned to a job as an input configuration parameter. However, with this design jobs can fail due to lack of enough resources (such as memory), or they can become a bottleneck in a workflow containing many jobs. While auto-scaling is much broader term, the goal of this project will be to enable a Samza job to automatically scale its containers such that there is improved cluster utilization.
