Data on the Cloud Series

Cloudbreak launches clusters on the cloud in 3 easy steps:

1. Pick a Blueprint: Cloudbreak uses Ambari Blueprints to have declarative Hadoop cluster definition. Blueprints can be designed for specialized applications and workloads (such as Data Science or IoT Apps). Cloudbreak includes a few default Blueprints for common cluster configurations but you can always upload your own Blueprint to build the cluster just the way you like it.
2. Choose a Cloud: Cloudbreak is configured to work with cloud infrastructure resources (such as servers, network setup and security options). Choose the cloud infrastructure you want to use for the cluster.
3. Launch Cluster: In this step, Cloudbreak obtains the chosen cloud infrastructure platform, installs Apache Ambari and applies the desired Blueprint. The result: your cluster is launched and ready to go!
