> If a job consists of many shuffle heavy transformations the current resilience model might be unsatisfactory. In our current use-case we need a persistent checkpoint that we can use to save our RDDs on disk in a custom location and load it back even if the driver dies. (Possible other use cases: store the checkpointed data in various formats: SequenceFile, csv, Parquet file, MySQL etc.)
> After talking to [~pwendell] at the Spark Summit 2014 we concluded that a checkpoint where one can customize the saving and RDD reloading behavior can be a good solution. I am open to further suggestions if you have better ideas about how to make checkpointing more flexible.
