The Apache Slider View for Apache Ambari Technical Preview provides a way to deploy and manage YARN applications that use the Apache Slider from Apache Ambari.

For background: 

Apache Slider is a technology that simplifies the deployment and management of applications that run on YARN. By packaging and deploying your application to YARN via Slider, you eliminate the need to develop a YARN ApplicationMaster and can rely on Slider to handle the application lifecycle.

Apache Ambari is a framework for installing, managing, and monitoring Apache Hadoop clusters. Ambari exposes a robust set of REST APIs and a rich Web interface for cluster management.

Ambari Views is a new Ambari capability (currently being developed in the Ambari community) to enable the extension of the Ambari Web interface via “Views”. The Slider View for Ambari uses this capability to deliver an integrated experience for deploying and managing Slider apps from Ambari Web.
