Hi all,

 

Is there a document describing the minimum hardware configuration requested for a 5.x CDH cluster to be supported by Cloudera ?

- Number and type of nodes, physical or virtual (Vsphere environment)

- memory, disks, IO, nb of cores

 

Best,

Kimchi

Hi ,

 

there is an older blogpost from 2013 about choosing hardware for a cloudera cluster.

 

https://blog.cloudera.com/blog/2013/08/how-to-select-the-right-hardware-for-your-new-hadoop-cluster/

 

I think this could provide you a rough estimation about the hardware.

 

For general requirements see the cloudera documentation:
