posted this question on user group - no sure if it was the right place -
posting it here (hope  that is ok).

Sorry I do not know much about BigTop, just getting started.  We have a
Java (maven) project that depends on Hadoop & HBase.  We are targeting
Bigtop 3.2.0.  We have updated our maven pom file to point to the versions
as specified in:
https://github.com/apache/bigtop/blob/release-3.2.0/bigtop.bom

Not sure if this is correct, but we suspect that BigTop is building HBase
2.4.13 with hadoop3 profile.  Are there any maven specific monikers (or
repository) we can use to access the binaries used by BigTop?

For example, when we use
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.hbase</groupId>
    <artifactId>hbase-common</artifactId>
    <version>2.4.13</version>
</dependency>

Maven just downloads the generic hbase-common jar file (which relies on
Hadoop 2.10).

Another example, to help clarify the question further.  If we were
targeting a cloudera cluster for example, we would be changing our maven
dependency to
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.hbase</groupId>
    <artifactId>hbase-common</artifactId>
    <version>x.y.z_cdh-a.b.c...</version>
</dependency>

If there are no BigTop-specific maven names or repositories, then:
* Are we expected to build BigTop from source code?
* Does building BigTop from source code deploy hadoop artifact to our local
maven repository?
* How do we avoid clashes?  For example, how do we maintain the generic
version of hbase-common 2.4.13 and the BigTop version in our repos?
* I couldn't find anything in the documentation that would help answer the
above questions but perhaps I missed it.

Thanks in advance
