Apache Hadoop YARN Description

YARN's core concept revolves around the division of resource management and job scheduling/monitoring into distinct daemons, aiming for a centralized ResourceManager (RM) alongside individual ApplicationMasters (AM) for each application. Each application can be defined as either a standalone job or a directed acyclic graph (DAG) of jobs. Together, the ResourceManager and NodeManager create the data-computation framework, with the ResourceManager serving as the primary authority that allocates resources across all applications in the environment. Meanwhile, the NodeManager acts as the local agent on each machine, overseeing containers and tracking their resource consumption, including CPU, memory, disk, and network usage, while also relaying this information back to the ResourceManager or Scheduler. The ApplicationMaster functions as a specialized library specific to its application, responsible for negotiating resources with the ResourceManager and coordinating with the NodeManager(s) to efficiently execute and oversee the execution of tasks, ensuring optimal resource utilization and job performance throughout the process. This separation allows for more scalable and efficient management in complex computing environments.
