The Hadoop add-on¶

The Hadoop add on actually contains the client parts of the Cloudera Hadoop and HBase distribution plus some integration features that will be described on this Wiki page.

As Hadoop and HBase do not have a clear client - server compatibility vector, you may only use the Hadoop add-on with a matching server version. Currently, in Z2 version 2.1, the contained distribution is CDH 4.0.1.

We do - for experimental use of course - provide an easy to install and use, pre-configured single-node CDH 4.0.1 via the Git repository TBD. The samples [sample-hadoop-basic] and [sample-hbase-basic] make use of that.

If you are bound to another version of Hadoop and HBase we ask you to start your own repositories and replace binaries as required.
