Other Information

  • In Linux environment cluster deployment, you can have nodes with different operating system i.e. Ubuntu or CentOS for testing environment. For production environment, we recommend to have all nodes must run on same operating system and same major release.

  • You can have Cluster Manager on either Windows or Linux to deploy clusters. For production environment we recommend to have Cluster Manager and cluster nodes on same OS. i.e. Cluster Manager on Windows to deploy Windows based Hadoop cluster.
