+1 

As someone who has personally broken the current bridge code by accident, I welcome this change :D

>                 Key: REEF-1164
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/REEF-1164
>             Project: REEF
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: REEF Bridge, REEF Driver, REEF.NET Driver
>            Reporter: Anupam

> REEF driver logic is mainly implemented in Java and it is undesirable to implement the core logic which is bug-prone and tricky, again and again. Further YARN and MESOS provide Java based APIs. 
> For implementing driver in languages other than Java we propose an IPC based driver could be implemented in Java for which multiple remote drivers could be authored in users’ language of choice. 
>  * This would clean up the API, make it less error prone. 
>  * Make it easy to add driver API for a new language.
>  * Remove the tricky to debug .NET/Java surface area.  
>  * This would help us get Linux support for REEF .NET.
