The 11th China Open Source Hackathon Recap: Arm support on Hadoop 2.7.7

[Yikun Jiang <yi...@gmail.com>]

Yesterday (25 Oct, 2020), the 11th China Open Source Hackathon was held in
Changsha City, Hunan Province. Since its first event in 2015, the China
Open Source Hackathon has been held 11th times. There are more than 110+
developers and more than 30 companies (like Huawei, Tencent, Intel, Linaro,
Arm, ZTE, Line, FiberHome, Inspur...) from 18 provinces gathered here to
complete the interesting projects.



As far as we know, many companies in China are using *Hadoop 2.7.X* in
their production environment (Like ByteDance, Meituan and so on). So that
supporting Arm only in the Hadoop master version is not enough. Therefore,
we hope to accomplish this task in this Hackathon.



After 3 days efforts, the hackathon Hadoop + openEuler team has
accomplished some interesting things, and I will share with you in here:



*1. Hadoop 2.7 Arm support. [1] [2]*

*2. Hadoop 2.7 three nodes containerized deployment verification*

*3. An interesting hackathon data analysis visualization. [3]*



That means Hadoop 2.7.X version is ready to *build, test, deploy and play*,
and all related work are open source [2], We hope it will bring you some
inspiration on Hadoop diversity computing support. If you are interested in
this, feel free to contact me to get more info.


One futher step, in order to avoid the fragmentation of code management and
benefits more users, we would also like to *contribute our works **[2]** to
upstream community. What's your advice?*



Thanks!
