F21 Self Contained Change: Amplab Tachyon

= Proposed Self Contained Change: Amplab Tachyon =
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/AmplabTachyon

Change owner(s): Timothy St. Clair <tstclair@redhat.com>

Amplab-Tachyon [1] is a fault tolerant distributed file system enabling
reliable file sharing at memory-speed across cluster frameworks.

== Detailed Description ==
Amplab-Tachyon is a fault tolerant distributed file system enabling reliable
file sharing at memory-speed across cluster frameworks, such as Spark and
MapReduce. It achieves high performance by leveraging lineage information and
using memory aggressively. Amplab-Tachyon caches working set files in memory
thereby avoiding going to disk to load datasets that are frequently read. This
enables different jobs/queries and frameworks to access cached files at memory
speed.

== Scope ==
* Proposal owners: Currently our Amplab-Tachyon package has been accepted into
Fedora. It should feature all of the functionality available from the upstream
release.
* Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Release engineering: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
