Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-2185:
--------------------------------------

Per a recommendation from Patrick Hunt, we might also consider taking a look at the [Netflix Curator|https://github.com/Netflix/curator], which includes a leader election recipe as well. It's Apache-licensed.

> This jira is for a ZK-based FailoverController daemon. The FailoverController is a separate daemon from the NN that does the following:
> * Initiates leader election (via ZK) when necessary
> * Performs health monitoring (aka failure detection)
> * Performs fail-over (standby to active and active to standby transitions)
> * Heartbeats to ensure the liveness
> It should have the same/similar interface as the Linux HA RM to aid pluggability.
