Cloudera and Docker


I want to run Cloudera using a Docker image (specifically, the cloudera/quickstart image).

However, on Docker Hub I can only find beta versions:

https://hub.docker.com/r/cloudera/quickstart/tags/

What's the correct way of getting a more up-to-date image?

Should I just download a beta image and then install parcels? Would I do that using Docker Compose? If so, can I find instructions for that online?

Or is there a completely different way to solve this?


Solution

  • To run Cloudera Quickstart within Docker, follow the instructions on that page: https://www.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/latest/topics/quickstart_docker_container.html

    Forget about your concerns regarding the "beta" tag. These tags are there, because the Docker image of Cloudera Quickstart is in beta mode. However, the CDH version in there is not. You will find this out on your own, once you run the container and check the CDH version inside.
