HDPCD Spark certificatiom VM Requirement

avatar

Hi Team,

I am planning for HDPCD certification spark exam. My system config is 8GB Ram I5 6th generation.

I am not able to open the HortonWorks sandBox, Can you please provide me any other VM or can you provide me with some installation guide so that I can practice for Spark exam.

There are older version of the Sandbox that might run within a 8GB machine, but probably not any that will have Spark, or at least, a relatively modern version of Spark. The Sandbox does have a cloud-hosted option. All of this is detailed at https://hortonworks.com/downloads/#sandbox. Good luck and happy Hadooping (and Sparking)!

Thanks Lester Martin,

I have installed Hortonworks HDF_2.1_docker_virtualbox_25_05_2017_13_03_38_ambari vm for my machine.. IP address generated after running is 127.0.0.1:18888/. Can you help me with this too..

I'd raise a separate HCC question for help with that. That way we'll get the targeted audience and your Q's won't be buried within this one that most will read as a cert question. That's a fancy way to say I haven't set that particular version up myself and wouldn't be much help until after I got my hands dirty with it. 😉
