Any hints on where to start with puppetization of my hbase stack would be much appreciated. Here goes.. This is an open quesiton about puppet and hbase - any deployment stories or suggested modules would be appreciated. Have been looking around at some puppet modules for HBASE, and am what experiences people might have had with some of them. In particular, for HBase, you need modules for - passwordless ssh - hbase itself - zookeeper - hadoop mapred - some HCFS file system (HDFS, S3FileSystem, ...). Obviously, most of the time this is HDFS. - firewall So - I'm assuming since HBASE clusters are often dedicated, that somewhere out there a mature end-to-end configuration template for puppetizing HBASE against brand new servers is in existence, :) -- Jay Vyas http://jayunit100.blogspot.com This electronic message is intended to be for the use only of the named recipient, and may contain information that is confidential or privileged.
