Zhijie Shen resolved YARN-321.
------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed

Close this umbrella jira with few sub tasks open. Generic history service has been implemented and rides on timeline server. YARN-2271 is left open to track one possible performance issue to fetch all the applications stored in the timeline store.

> The mapreduce job history server currently needs to be deployed as a trusted server in sync with the mapreduce runtime. Every new application would need a similar application history server. Having to deploy O(T*V) (where T is number of type of application, V is number of version of application) trusted servers is clearly not scalable.
> Job history storage handling itself is pretty generic: move the logs and history data into a particular directory for later serving. Job history data is already stored as json (or binary avro). I propose that we create only one trusted application history server, which can have a generic UI (display json as a tree of strings) as well. Specific application/version can deploy untrusted webapps (a la AMs) to query the application history server and interpret the json for its specific UI and/or analytics.
