How to practice programming with Hadoop

Question

I am learning hadoop through youtube videos. I have just finished the introductory videos. Now, in order to go ahead with the hadoop tutorials, I am worried about how to practice the programs? How can I install hadoop in my local pc?

Answer 1

Well there are multiple ways to solve your problem. Basically, you want to setup the hadoop dev environment. I will suggest you two ways that you can follow:

• Installing Hadoop Using VM: You can setup apache hadoop on a vm. You will find tons of videos or tutorials for it. Here is the link for one - https://www.edureka.co/blog/install-hadoop-single-node-hadoop-cluster Just follow along the instruction specified in the blog.

• Download Cloudera or Hortonworks Quickstart VM: You can download the ready made VM provided by cloudera or hortonworks which has everything i.e. all the hadoop services pre-installed in it along with the IDE (eclipse). Here is the link to that: https://www.cloudera.com/downloads/quickstart_vms/5-13.html
