'Mesos: The Operating System for your Cluster' by David Greenberg

Maybe you've heard of Mesos--that thing that you can run Hadoop on. I think it powers Twitter? Isn't it an Apache project, or something?

In this talk, we'll learn all about Mesos--what it is, how you can leverage it to simplify your infrastructure and reduce AWS/cloud computing costs, and why you should develop your next application on top of it. This talk will give you the tools you need to understand whether Mesos is the right fit for your infrastructure, and several starting points for learning more about Mesos.

Nicely explained! Comparison with OS makes me to understand the concepts easily.

Thanks for the super clear explanation!

If we approached this like a normal operating system, pooling resources etc, and treated it like multiseat linux, a variety of different desktop environments, terminals for every user like oldschool mainframes, and let it just work properly under an existing operating system structure what would happen?
