Feedback requested - Accumulo Quickstart
Hello,
I am interested in feedback on a project to help new users get up and
running with Accumulo. The project is available at
https://github.com/mjwall/accumulo-quickstart.
If the README doesn't answer everything, please let me know so I can fix
it. Suggestions, bugs, comments and anything else are appreciated. Email
is fine, as are new issues on github.
Thanks
Mike

Hi David,
No, hadn't planned to support VMs of any kind. I personally have found
Accumulo in a VM to be distractingly slow. I don't do Windows though, so a
local install has always been an option.
The whole point of the quickstart is to install directly on a local machine
in one directory. Users should be able to ignore everything and begin
working immediately, well immediately after waiting for everything to
download and start. But when they want to dig deeper, everything is
installed. And should it be needed, users can remove the entire directory
and start all over.
I feel as though I am missing something in your question though.
Thanks
Mike

Any plans to support a Vagrant installation of your configuration so that
user don't need to install directly onto their machines? With Vagrant, all
of the services can automatically be started. The user can immediately
start to work with Accumulo and basically ignore Hadoop and Zookeeper.

Hi Ted, thanks for the reply
Yes, I have considered it and even created a issue for it,
https://github.com/mjwall/accumulo-quickstart/issues/1. My first thought
was to keep the project as simple as possible for new users, which meant
not asking them decide which version of Hadoop to use or to understand the
differences.
I can see the desire to match your intended production environment though.
That would apply to Zookeeper and Accumulo versions as well. Just haven't
gotten there yet. Let me know if you have another reason in mind for
wanting to use Hadoop 2.2.
