Consider adding helix to whirr/bigtop?
Have you considered integration with Apache Whirr? How about
Apache Bigtop? It would definitely make the project more consumable,
which should help with adoption and building community. You'll get
integration testing help with Bigtop as well.

Good point guys. Does helix have a demo app? That might be a good way
to integrate it. Then anyone wanting to deploy using
helix/whirr/bigtop might base their work on the demo "template".
Perhaps a way to centralize shared code/pkging.

This is my turn being confused ;-) To the best of my knowledge
Helix remains a software library that needs to be embedded
in some higher level application in order to be useful. What
kind of 'deployment' (whether by Whirr or Bigtop) could be there?
Are you guys saying that you've implemented Helix standalone
agents as we've discussed sometimes in the past?
Thanks,
Roman.

Can you elaborate on integration testing help with Bigtop.

I probably did not understand your email properly. You probably meant
we should integrate Helix with Whirr so that Helix can be installed on
cloud providers like ec2. Thats a good idea and I had actually tried
doing something like that a year back but had some issues with Whirr
and ended up using jclouds api directly.
Agree with you that its a good idea and will make the project more consumable.

Hi Patrick,
I havent looked int Whirr in detail. Not sure what kind of integration
can happen there. I think Andrei Savu was looking at using Helix in
Provisionr. Not sure how these two projects will shape up and where
will Helix fit better.
Roman is quite busy with the Bigtop Hadoop certification currently
and he mentioned that he would look into this.
thanks
