You know what, I think the effort being completed at Apache BigTop is giving Ambari a fighting chance. I'm going to write something up on Ambari and Bigtop of how to use an mpack to install Apache BigTop on Ambari. (Basically a rip and replace for HDP)
I'll post back here in a week or so once it's up and running right now there are pieces everywhere. If you want to follow progress read about it here: BIGTOP-3264 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-3264>, AMBARI-25366 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-25366>. I'll update my efforts to document the process in both Ambari getting started and BigTop getting started. We aren't at a polished finished stage but their has been a huge effort to get this off the ground. (And we can likely steal a bunch of committed code from HDP to get some of this moving faster) Big thanks to @Ganesh Raju <ganesh.r...@linaro.org> for pointing me in the right direction. Actually kind of cool, as this would enable you to move at the pace of Bigtop to a new version of [apache component] instead of always waiting for a new release from cloudera. (FYI, Cloudera and Horton works both have used BigTop to create releases in the past, just in case you don't know BigTop) And for those that wanted to have an open source option, BigTop is still the only 100% open source option for RPMs. (and as far as I know isn't a commercial company) On Mon, May 11, 2020 at 1:08 PM Stephen Boesch <java...@gmail.com> wrote: > I am reading between the lines that ambari is no longer a strategic > platform.
