SE-Radio-Episode-235:-Ben-Hindman-on-Apache-Mesos

Ben Hindman talks to Jeff Meyerson about Apache Mesos, a
distributed systems kernel. Mesos abstracts away many of the
hassles of managing a distributed system. Hindman starts with a
high-level explanation of Mesos, explaining the problems he
encountered trying to run multiple instances of Hadoop against a
single data set. He then discusses how Twitter uses Mesos for
cluster management. The conversation evolves into a more granular
discussion of the abstractions Mesos provides and different ways
to leverage those abstractions.
