Our production Hadoop Cluster is based on Cloudera's CD3U6 repository. Here are some details (some links will not work because of the private network):

• namenode (that is login node): whitetail.wesleyan.edu
  • whitetail also runs the Hadoop Scheduler and Health Monitor
    • Health Status
    • Job Tracker
  • ssh to it directly or from any of our other tails
• resources: access to 600 GB of memory and 1.75 TB of Hadoop's Distributed File System (HDFS)
  • could be doubled in near future if needed

• HDFS is not backed up!
  • You must request a writable work area /userdata/username
  • Be sure to down load your results to /home/username

• Data to be shared (dictionaries, anagrams, etc) can be posted in /shareddata
  • request such items to be posted there

• Basic tools (request other tools to be installed)
  • shell scripting
  • python
  • perl (Hadoop::Streaming)
  • R+RHadoop (rmr2, rhdfs, rhbase)
  • Hbase (noSQL database)
    • Master & Zookeepers
    • Thrift server
  • MySQL
    • request a database to be set up
