Introduction

Apache Aurora is a service scheduler that runs on top of Apache Mesos, enabling you to run long-running services, cron jobs, and ad-hoc jobs that take advantage of Apache Mesos’ scalability, fault-tolerance, and resource isolation.

We encourage you to ask questions on the Aurora user list or the #aurora IRC channel on irc.freenode.net.
