So far, I can only see Accumulo cannot being collocated with H & Z. Az has documentation on how to set up 3rd partly applications, but I don’t think something like Accumulo qualifies. Something I haven’t mentioned is I also need the programming language Julia talking to Accumulo but that’s another matter.

My first thoughts are that if it provides Hadoop and ZooKeeper for you, then that's a few less things to worry about from a maintenance perspective for your Accumulo cluster. On the other hand, if you can't run Accumulo nodes colocated with Hadoop DataNodes, then I wonder if you're losing some performance due to lack of data locality (on top of any performance hit from being in a virtual environment).

Can it be done? Or am I better off just using a few Linux VMs, which is my first inclination and definitely my comfort zone? The employer has me on MS Azure. I am setting up an Accumulo cluster there. I notice Az offers a Hadoop thing called HDInsight. I looked into possibly using it—it has Zookeeper—for the H & Z part of my installation but as yet I don’t see how to bring Accumulo into the picture. Any thoughts are appreciated.
