Announcing Elastic Hadoop on OpenStack project

 

Hello community,

At Mirantis within our customer and partner base we see growing demand to
deploy and run Hadoop clusters on OpenStack cloud and manage them via an
OpenStack API.

The main goal of this initiative, codenamed EHO (Elastic Hadoop on
OpenStack), is to create native OpenStack component for fast provisioning
and operating Hadoop clusters on demand.

The key features are as follows:
* Open source;
* Native for OpenStack;
* Support for different Hadoop distributions;
* Fast clusters provisioning (e.g. for deploying Dev or QA environments);
* Elastic MapReduce job execution similar to Amazon EMR

We would appreciate all for your feedback and comments.

We're going to hold public weekly meetings on Thursday at 18:00 UTC on our
