Adding Apache Apex service in Ambari

Hi,

Apache Apex <http://incubator.apache.org/projects/apex.html> project is
planning to put it's installer/distribution into bigtop. As I checked
Ambari has Bigtop stack. I have couple of questions:

1. Is bigtop stack is available by default when Ambari is installed.
2. Is it acceptable if we create a new version Bigtop stack once Apache
Apex is available with bigtop?

Regards,
Priyanka

Thanks a lot for your feedback. I will try to put the Apache Apex under
common services. We want it to be easily available, so based on you
suggestion I think the best way is to have it under common services.

Hi Priyanka,

Let me try to answer to the best of my knowledge. Replies inline.

BTW, if you are planning to write the plugin for Apache Apex, it would be
better if you write it under the common-services
(ambari/ambari-server/src/main/resources/common-services) rather than a
stack specific definition.
