I am trying to test a technology stack that would utilize a cluster of parallella boards as data center appliances. My plan is to use Mesos with Docker, which seems entirely feasible. My question refers to the 16 core Epiphany chip on the Parallella itself. According to the documentation available from Adapteva, "Epiphany is best leveraged as a massively parallel autonomous application specific processor." So basically, do I need to write a custom tasking service that will allow Mesos to utilize the Epiphany cores, or can Mesos "discover" the Epiphany on it's own?
PS: I am aware that data center appliance use is not typical for a Parallella, but my particular use case requires a compact form factor and extremely low power consumption.
