| Introduction |
| |
| The Apache Ambari project is aimed at making Hadoop management simpler by developing software for provisioning, managing, and monitoring Apache Hadoop clusters. |
| Ambari provides an intuitive, easy-to-use Hadoop management web UI backed by its RESTful APIs. |
| |
| The set of Hadoop components that are currently supported by Ambari includes: |
| |
| {{{http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/hdfs} HDFS}}, |
| {{{http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/mapreduce} MapReduce}}, |
| {{{http://hive.apache.org} Hive}}, |
| {{{http://incubator.apache.org/hcatalog} HCatalog}}, |
| {{{http://hbase.apache.org} HBase}}, |
| {{{http://zookeeper.apache.org} ZooKeeper}}, |
| {{{http://incubator.apache.org/oozie/} Oozie}}, |
| {{{http://pig.apache.org} Pig}}, |
| {{{http://sqoop.apache.org} Sqoop}} |
| |

| |
| Ambari enables System Administrators to: |
| |
| * Provision a Hadoop Cluster |
| |
| * Ambari provides a step-by-step wizard for installing Hadoop services across any number of hosts. |
| |
| * Ambari handles configuration of Hadoop services for the cluster. |
| |
| [] |
| |
| * Manage a Hadoop Cluster |
| |
| * Ambari provides central management for starting, stopping, and reconfiguring Hadoop services across the entire cluster. |
| |
| [] |
| |
| * Monitor a Hadoop Cluster |
| |
| * Ambari provides a dashboard for monitoring health and status of the Hadoop cluster. |
| |
| * Ambari leverages {{{http://ganglia.sourceforge.net/} Ganglia}} for metrics collection. |
| |
| * Ambari leverages {{{http://www.nagios.org/} Nagios}} for system alerting and will send emails when your attention is needed (e.g., a node goes down, remaining disk space is low, etc). |
| |
| [] |
| |
| Ambari enables Application Developers and System Integrators to: |
| |
| * Easily integrate Hadoop provisioning, management, and monitoring capabilities to their own applications with the {{{https://github.com/apache/ambari/blob/trunk/ambari-server/docs/api/v1/index.md} Ambari REST APIs}}. |
| |

| Disclaimer |
| |
| Apache Ambari is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) sponsored by the Apache Incubator PMC. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF. |
