Hi,
Seems we just had someone talk about this just the other day...
1) 8GB of memory isn't enough to run both M/R and HBase.
Ok, yes you can run it, however don't expect it to perform well.
2) You never want a user to run their own code from the cluster itself. Use an
*edge* node.
There's more, but you get the idea.
