life after Hortonworks

Hey I was just poking around today trying to figure out if ambari still
works to install a cluster.

I recently was able to install a Cloudera Manager installation.

I was about to start an Ambari installation but when I poke the repos they
all seem to need a user/password.

Is there a non-hortonworks(cloudera) hadoop that can be still be installed
with Amabari?

If there is documentation somewhere just let me know, I couldn't find the
answer googling as Hortonworks(cloudera) docs are all that come up.

All the new\old stuff is behind a Cloudera pay wall. I am not sure how much of it.  Maybe someone has a mirror…

You know what, I think the effort being completed at Apache BigTop
is giving Ambari a fighting chance.  I'm going to write something up on
Ambari and Bigtop of how to use an mpack to install Apache BigTop on
Ambari.  (Basically a rip and replace for HDP)

I'll post back here in a week or so once it's up and running right now
there are pieces everywhere.  If you want to follow progress read about it
here:  BIGTOP-3264 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-3264>,
AMBARI-25366 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-25366>.  I'll
update my efforts to document the process in both Ambari getting started
and BigTop getting started.  We aren't at a polished finished stage but
their has been a huge effort to get this off the ground.  (And we can
likely steal a bunch of committed code from HDP to get some of this
moving faster)

Big  thanks to @Ganesh Raju <ga...@linaro.org>  for pointing me in
the right direction.

Actually kind of cool, as this would enable you to move at the pace of
Bigtop to a new version of [apache component] instead of always waiting for
a new release from cloudera.  (FYI, Cloudera and Horton works both have
used BigTop to create releases in the past, just in case you don't know
BigTop)

And for those that wanted to have an open source option, BigTop is still
the only 100% open source option for RPMs.  (and as far as I know isn't a
commercial company)

@jeremy montgomery <al...@gmail.com>  thanks that would be amazing
if you could add what you know.  The docs are a little scarce.. I'll add
what I learn as well as I flush out BigTop mpack so Ambari can still have a
future.

Re: life after Hortonworks

Posted by Aaron Bossert <aa...@punchcyber.com>.
That would be greatly appreciated, @jeremy montgomery<ma...@gmail.com> !  And for a design document, is there an example floating around that would be appropriately formatted ?

Subject: Re: life after Hortonworks

@aaron - i don't think that the server/agent piece needs to be messed with.  It is more puppet than ansible, but it works pretty well.  It has a few issues that need to be worked out, but nothing insurmountable.

Agent/Server (pieces that need work)

  *   Ability to invalidate the agent cache.
  *   Multithreading - Currently alerts/restarts work on a concept of threads and timeouts.  You can end up with too many concurrent tasks/alerts and things get backlogged waiting on the timeouts.  However, if you up the threads you run into a lot of race conditions with auto-restart and alerts firing concurrently. ----> main piece here is it needs a prioritized queuing system locally.
  *   Order of restarts and hierarchy - Right now this is hard coded at the server level within a component and somewhat for full restarts based on the order on the left hand bar.
     *   Need the ability to modify the full restart sequence
     *   Need the ability to state whether a restart is blocking, blocking only when component is on the same server, and non-blocking.
     *   Need the ability to chain 2 different components together.  Example, if i restart a kerberized hiveserver2 i can have it restart hue as well after it is restarted.  Otherwise hue will error out since the spnego hashes are different.

I'll make some edits to the confluence page explaining how the stacks/mpacks/extensions work.

@Jeremy - thanks for the insights, I might ping you if I get stuck trying to get into it.  I certainly wish there was a clean standard for installation locations.

I make mpacks all the time, but tend to push them as extensions because the stack architecture is byzantine.

  *   It is java that deploys python code.  As such, the structure behaves like java, which makes it a pain in the rear to track down simple python functions.  Sometimes the code ends up in common-services, sometimes it stays in the current version of stacks.  Some stack components only use code in their latest version, some have code files strung through the folders of 8 previous versions and 3 stacks (looking at you LLAP).
  *   The install code doesn't know where it wants to be.  sometimes its in the stack, sometimes it is in ambari.  This means that a version of ambari tends to be hard coded to 1-2 versions of a stack.
  *   Changing javascript for a stack isn't possible.  This means that stack components are hard coded into the ember.js with a bunch of if statements.
  *   Making additions to a stack feature is a major process (like adding hbase thrift to an existing hbase installation)
  *   Upgrades require a yum file regardless of installation method.  so learning how to create dummy rpms is necessary.

I'd be willing to chip in and maintain the stack python code but the stack architecture really needs to be revisited.

Cloudera no longer uses ambari. They stuck with Cloudera manager in their release of CDP.(CDH+HDP=CDP)



https://docs.cloudera.com/cdpdc/7.0/overview/topics/cdpdc-overview.html<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.cloudera.com%2Fcdpdc%2F7.0%2Foverview%2Ftopics%2Fcdpdc-overview.html&data=01%7C01%7Caaron%40punchcyber.com%7C716267a58ddf4dfc2fa108d7f809e488%7Cf7ca96216ba34d52a241e0ed3ea6a78a%7C0&sdata=fWhpx7aJiGmBCl9J%2BaFOA0aNDILgfau9QHqi0NMt1dA%3D&reserved=0>



I don't think this means that Ambari is dead.  I do think it means as stated that the community will need to take on packaging a stack and building rpms.(or at least packaging the stack)



The legacy code for stack of HDP 2.6 stream is out there already in the repo so it's just some work to create rpms of whatever Ambari wants to release.



I assume the stacks section is so poorly documented is because Hortonworks was doing the work of packaging.  I'm not sure the level of effort needed to make a stack work but it seems like we could start with the last HDP build (3.1.4) and keep moving forward.

Hey I was just poking around today trying to figure out if ambari still works to install a cluster.



I recently was able to install a Cloudera Manager installation.



I was about to start an Ambari installation but when I poke the repos they all seem to need a user/password.



Is there a non-hortonworks(cloudera) hadoop that can be still be installed with Amabari?



If there is documentation somewhere just let me know, I couldn't find the answer googling as Hortonworks(cloudera) docs are all that come up.

Re: life after Hortonworks

Posted by Matt Andruff <ma...@gmail.com>.
@Aaron Bossert - For that type of change (Ansible) you probably need to
write up a design paper. (I have seen this done, and I'm not sure it's
required but seems to be common practice)  Sounds like ansible would be a
good fit.

@Jeremy - thanks for the insights, I might ping you if I get stuck trying
to get into it.  I certainly wish there was a clean standard for
installation locations.

Jeremy,

I would be happy to tackle this with you and whoever else is willing…that being said, I have always had a love/hate relationship with Ambari…the stacks have always been intimidating to me….you mention revisiting the architecture….do you have any ideas for what might be better?  In my opinion, I have always wanted to replace the guts of ambari with a system that is underpinned by Ansible…seems much more user-friendly and MUCH easier to configure and extend for those who are not comfortable with doing their own Java to Python and creating RPM’s and the like….What are your thoughts?

I make mpacks all the time, but tend to push them as extensions because the stack architecture is byzantine.

  *   It is java that deploys python code.  As such, the structure behaves like java, which makes it a pain in the rear to track down simple python functions.  Sometimes the code ends up in common-services, sometimes it stays in the current version of stacks.  Some stack components only use code in their latest version, some have code files strung through the folders of 8 previous versions and 3 stacks (looking at you LLAP).
  *   The install code doesn't know where it wants to be.  sometimes its in the stack, sometimes it is in ambari.  This means that a version of ambari tends to be hard coded to 1-2 versions of a stack.
  *   Changing javascript for a stack isn't possible.  This means that stack components are hard coded into the ember.js with a bunch of if statements.
  *   Making additions to a stack feature is a major process (like adding hbase thrift to an existing hbase installation)
  *   Upgrades require a yum file regardless of installation method.  so learning how to create dummy rpms is necessary.
I'd be willing to chip in and maintain the stack python code but the stack architecture really needs to be revisited.

Cloudera no longer uses ambari. They stuck with Cloudera manager in their release of CDP.(CDH+HDP=CDP)

https://docs.cloudera.com/cdpdc/7.0/overview/topics/cdpdc-overview.html<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.cloudera.com%2Fcdpdc%2F7.0%2Foverview%2Ftopics%2Fcdpdc-overview.html&data=01%7C01%7Caaron%40punchcyber.com%7C89b759ffe21a47ee874a08d7f6766280%7Cf7ca96216ba34d52a241e0ed3ea6a78a%7C0&sdata=7%2BMaRSRcCIjjKVT777pp18IYYsXEAGk3VPdNuOexV2w%3D&reserved=0>

I don't think this means that Ambari is dead.  I do think it means as stated that the community will need to take on packaging a stack and building rpms.(or at least packaging the stack)

The legacy code for stack of HDP 2.6 stream is out there already in the repo so it's just some work to create rpms of whatever Ambari wants to release.

I assume the stacks section is so poorly documented is because Hortonworks was doing the work of packaging.  I'm not sure the level of effort needed to make a stack work but it seems like we could start with the last HDP build (3.1.4) and keep moving forward.

Hey I was just poking around today trying to figure out if ambari still works to install a cluster.

I recently was able to install a Cloudera Manager installation.

I was about to start an Ambari installation but when I poke the repos they all seem to need a user/password.

Is there a non-hortonworks(cloudera) hadoop that can be still be installed with Amabari?

If there is documentation somewhere just let me know, I couldn't find the answer googling as Hortonworks(cloudera) docs are all that come up.

Re: life after Hortonworks

Posted by jeremy montgomery <al...@gmail.com>.
I make mpacks all the time, but tend to push them as extensions because the
stack architecture is byzantine.

   - It is java that deploys python code.  As such, the structure behaves
   like java, which makes it a pain in the rear to track down simple python
   functions.  Sometimes the code ends up in common-services, sometimes it
   stays in the current version of stacks.  Some stack components only use
   code in their latest version, some have code files strung through the
   folders of 8 previous versions and 3 stacks (looking at you LLAP).
   - The install code doesn't know where it wants to be.  sometimes its in
   the stack, sometimes it is in ambari.  This means that a version of ambari
   tends to be hard coded to 1-2 versions of a stack.
   - Changing javascript for a stack isn't possible.  This means that stack
   components are hard coded into the ember.js with a bunch of if statements.
   - Making additions to a stack feature is a major process (like adding
   hbase thrift to an existing hbase installation)
   - Upgrades require a yum file regardless of installation method.  so
   learning how to create dummy rpms is necessary.

I'd be willing to chip in and maintain the stack python code but the stack
architecture really needs to be revisited.

Re: life after Hortonworks

Posted by Aaron Bossert <aa...@punchcyber.com>.
Matt,

Yeah, my thought was to start with whatever the most recent HDP/HDF stack definition as a starting point.  It just so happens that I have a backburner project to do this already.  I have been using Hortonworks for a long time, but have found recently that I needed to install newer versions of Apache Druid and Apache Storm, which would require me to do a new stack…Full disclosure:  I have NEVER mucked with stacks and am not a Python guy…I write in Scala/Java predominantly….that being said, I would be happy to collaborate on this if anyone feels that this would be worthwhile and useful to the broader community.

Cloudera no longer uses ambari. They stuck with Cloudera manager in their release of CDP.(CDH+HDP=CDP)

I don't think this means that Ambari is dead.  I do think it means as stated that the community will need to take on packaging a stack and building rpms.(or at least packaging the stack)

The legacy code for stack of HDP 2.6 stream is out there already in the repo so it's just some work to create rpms of whatever Ambari wants to release.

I assume the stacks section is so poorly documented is because Hortonworks was doing the work of packaging.  I'm not sure the level of effort needed to make a stack work but it seems like we could start with the last HDP build (3.1.4) and keep moving forward.

was doing the work of packaging.  I'm not sure the level of effort needed
to make a stack work but it seems like we could start with the last HDP
build (3.1.4) and keep moving forward.

Re: life after Hortonworks

I am reading between the lines that ambari is no longer a strategic
platform. Would someone please provide a link/reference to a Cloudera press
release or blog describing this and maybe related decisions/roadmaps?  thx!

Re: life after Hortonworks

Posted by Aaron Bossert <aa...@punchcyber.com>.
For what it is worth, I have written blueprints before, but never stacks.  The documentation and tutorials for ambari stacks and blueprints are horribly out of date, incomplete, or flat out missing.  Perhaps that could be an initial task for the community to undertake so that those of us who were using the Hortonworks suite of tools and were comfortable with Ambari can sever the cord, as it were....relying on commercial companies to support open source tools once their objectives have changed is rarely a good thing.

Matt

Here is the JIRA <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-3211>for the
work done on Bigtop on Ambari mpack. Also BIGTOP-3264
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-3264>, AMBARI-25366
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-25366>
Here is a helpful youtube <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnyUQtF8ZyM>video
on using Ambari to install Bigtop stack. Here is a talk
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhC7_IYRPxI>about it as well. And here is
a wiki
<https://github.com/apache/bigtop/pull/555/commits/3b3af11341806567d5edf7a7cfbe20051c074988>page
on instructions.
Yes please, i would appreciate it if you can ask in the Bigtop dev mailing
list and you will get lots of help.

Univ of Michigan is an example customer who is using Ambari mpack with
Bigtop stack in production.

Thanks,
Ganesh

Yes that's what Bigtop did. BTW, Apache Bigtop already has hadoop and 30
other components.

Re: life after Hortonworks

I kept digging and I found that ambari supports stacks (that we have all
seen before).  You can write your own custom stack
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Overview#Overview-Structure>
meaning you could write the "glue" what apache projects  hortonworks had
written to roll out a set of services.  I guess this is how they got around
being open source.  I guess I'll start looking into making my own stack
from scratch.  If anyone already has one or know of one, please let me know.

Apache Bigtop now has mpack and works with Ambari. You could try that.
