HDP 3 public repo

[#1]

Hi

I want to upgrade our cluster to HDP3.
However I can not access to "public" repo describe in doc (for instance https://archive.cloudera.com/p/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.7.5.0/ambari.repo
) because an authentication is now required.

Does the community edition still exist or do we need to subscribe a paying subscription even if we do not need support ?

Thx for the answer.
Regards.

@Regis Previously open source, the new versions of ambari (2.7.5) and HDP (3.1.5) have moved behind a paywall in an open core strategy.   You cannot access them without cloudera subscription.

I recommend to use the last free versions:  Ambari 2.7.4 and HDP 3.1.4.

You can find these repos here:

Also below is more information about the Authorization needed for Pay Walled Repos:

@singyik  Yes.  I believe that is the last free public repo.  Who knows how long it will remain.  If you are using it i would recommend to fully copy and use the copy.
