Ambari Metrics distributed mode - HBASE service required?

avatar
Contributor

Hi,

I have switched Ambari Metrics from "embedded" mode to "distributed" mode and it seems to work well. However I do not have HBASE service deployed in the cluster, but I assume that Ambari Metrics is using HBASE is standalone mode.

The question is wether Ambari Metrics can benefit somehow from the HBASE service running on my cluster.

Ambari Metrics has its own master and region server.

Metrics are stored in its own region server.

You don't have to deploy hbase in Ambari managed cluster

HBASE service running in cluster can be used with Ambari Metrics. Have a look at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/AMS+-+distributed+mode

This what I have actually configured and it is working. Still I do not have distributed HBASE service deployed on my Ambari managed cluster. So my question is wether it will make any benefit to run the distributed HBASE service on my Ambari managed cluster because of the Ambari Metrics in distributed mode.
