This document provides an overview and demonstration of using Mesos frameworks with persistent storage for production applications. It begins with a review of Mesos and how frameworks provide two-layer scheduling. It then discusses how production applications need persistent, highly available storage. The demonstration shows an ElasticSearch framework deployed on Mesos that uses external persistent storage for data persistence even if compute nodes fail. It simulates a node failure to show the framework recreating the executor and reattaching it to the persistent storage volume. The document promotes the idea that frameworks can help applications fail fast and recover quickly when using external persistent stateful storage.
