Apache-Mesos

Apache-Mesos is a container cluster manager developed for very large clusters involving thousands of hosts. Mesos provides a distributed kernel that is running across different nodes in the cluster and provides APIs for the application to manage resources such as memory, CPU, disk, and scheduling these resources.

The major components of Mesos are as follows:

• Mesos agent

• Mesos master

• ZooKeeper

• Mesos frameworks
