How is BSD support in Hadoop?


1 Answer(s)


hi Zachary,

Hadoop is known to work on all popular Linux versions (CentOS , Ubuntu). Technically it should be possible to install Hadoop on BSD by downloading Hadoop source tarball and manually compiling and installing but if the admin wants t perform any upgrades these would be very difficult.

Also the major Hadoop vendors like Cloudera, Hortonworks, MapR etc primarily support CentOS and Ubuntu.

Thanks
