Ryan, I currently have a Hadoop/HBase setup that uses EBS. It works but using EBS implied an additional overhead of configuration (too bad you can't spawn instances with volumes already attached to it tho I'm sure that'll come). Shutting down instances and bringing others up also requires more micro-management but I think Tom White wrote about it and there was a link to it in another discussion you were part of.
Hope this helps, J-D On Fri, Sep 5, 2008 at 7:00 PM, Ryan LeCompte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > > I was wondering if anyone has gotten far at all with getting Hadoop up > and running with EC2 + EBS?
