Hello community, At Mirantis within our customer and partner base we see growing demand to deploy and run Hadoop clusters on OpenStack cloud and manage them via an OpenStack API. The main goal of this initiative, codenamed EHO (Elastic Hadoop on OpenStack), is to create native OpenStack component for fast provisioning and operating Hadoop clusters on demand. The key features are as follows: * Open source; * Native for OpenStack; * Support for different Hadoop distributions; * Fast clusters provisioning (e.g. for deploying Dev or QA environments); * Elastic MapReduce job execution similar to Amazon EMR We would appreciate all for your feedback and comments. Here are the key links: * Project blueprint: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/EHO | http://eho.mirantis.com/index.html * Roadmap: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/EHO/Roadmap | http://eho.mirantis.com/roadmap.html * API draft: http://eho.mirantis.com/restapi/v02.html * Sources: https://github.com/mirantis/eho * Launchpad project: https://launchpad.net/eho * Quickstart: http://eho.mirantis.com/quickstart.html * Horizon pages screenshots: http://eho.mirantis.com/horizon/index.html If you would like to ask some questions or make proposals, feel free to reply to this message in OpenStack mailing list or reach us on #eho irc channel at freenode. Typically somebody from our team will be online at irc from 6:00 to 20:00 UTC. You can also contact EHO community directly by email mailto:eho at lists.launchpad.net (please, note that your email address should be registered in launchpad, otherwise your mail will be ignored by mailing system). We're going to hold public weekly meetings on Thursday at 18:00 UTC on our irc channel. Also we would greatly appreciate if you consider contributing to EHO project. For both docs and code, simply send us pull requests via github. -- Sergey Lukjanov Mirantis Inc. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
