For my hadoop development and testing I use LXC (linux container) instead of VM, mainly due to its light weight resource consumption. As mater of fact as I am typing, my ubuntu system is automatically building a 6 nodes hadoop cluster on my 16G labtop. If you have an Ubuntu system you could install a fully configurable Hadoop 2.2.0 single node or multi-node cluster in less then 10 minutes. Here what you need to do: 1) Install and learn Ubuntu Juju (shouldn't take an hour)- instructions : https://juju.ubuntu.com/docs/getting-started.html 2) there are two types hadoop charms: a) Single node for hadoop development : https://jujucharms.com/?text=hadoop2-devel b) multi-node for testing testing : https://jujucharms.com/?text=hadoop Let me know if you need more help
