May I use cloudbreak to scale my hadoop cluster with existing ambari cluster?

[#1]

Hello,

I installed hadoop cluster via ambari automated installation. At present, my cluster is having three nodes. I want to scale up and scale down based on my load requirements. I hosted my cluster in aws.

I have gone through cloud break official document where they have specified to create a new cluster. I would like to continue with my existing cluster controlled by ambari. Is it possible to achieve?

Thanks in advance!

I don't think that you can use cloudbreak to do this in your case . You can look into this https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Blueprints#Blueprints-AddingHoststoanExistingClus...

You can automate the process to scale up and down using API.
