             Summary: create the concept of a persistent executor
                 Key: MESOS-428
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-428
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: framework, master, slave
            Reporter: brian wickman


The idea would be to allocate (e.g. via the slave command-line or by communicating directly to a specialized allocator) a static ExecutorInfo that would persist forever and never be a candidate for revocation / garbage collection without manual intervention.  Its resources could still be compressed via oversubscription and re-offered but never outright revoked.  Ideally there would be a mechanism to authenticate a framework and allow it to securely lay claim to a preallocated/persistent executor.

The use-case is for carving out slices of machines for stateful / persistent services, e.g. HDFS, Kestrel, Redis, MySQL.  Rather than managing this via puppet, we'd manage them with Mesos and leverage the Mesos toolchain and observability stack.
