> Currently, spark doesn't provide the ability to pass configuration as a file, people have to explicitly specify them on the command line. This becomes a bigger issue when deploying spark on a cluster and people want to specify parameters other than default value. 
> As of now, spark is being a top apache project and we need to pay more attention to the configuration. Most apache projects provide a xml configuration file (like hdfs, hadoop, hbase, etc.) and probably we want to do the same thing for spark. The advantages are obvious, it helps developers to specify their own spark configuration for the cluster and add/remove configuration parameters will be much easier via file than via system property.
