phoenix query server installation

arunpoy — Fri, 15 Apr 2016 13:04:47 GMT

I am planning to install Hbase on my cluster along with phoenix through Ambari. In the add service section (slaves and clients), i do see an option of Phoenix query server. By default it is not enabled. Should i install this component mandatorily or just a phoenix client is enough. If i need to install it mandatorily, where should i install this component ( which all nodes).

Hi @ARUNKUMAR RAMASAMY, Phoenix query server is optional and you can safely skip it for the time being. It provides access to Phonex for "thin clients" but they are yet to come (Avatica, Calcite). You can read more here. If you want to install it then it's enough to install it on one node, for example, collocated with your HBase master.
