How to create a Cluster using Docker

[#1]

Hi:

I am starting with HDP and I have tried to install it on Docker and to create a cluster with some CentOS nodes running in a virtual machine. I understand how it works and I have my Cluster working.

In my project I need to create a cluster only using Docker for the servers and for the nodes.

In Ambari I know that I can automatically install the diferent Ambari Agents on my node if my node is running CentOS, and I also know that I can install the different Ambari Agents manually.

My questions:

-Can I install HDP in different Docker containers and use some of them as nodes and other ones as server? In other words, If I install HDP in several nodes, Can I register these nodes manually as hosts in Ambari?

-Is there another way to create my Cluster only with Docker?

Thanks for your help.
