We are pleased to announce the release of CSA Community Edition (CE). You can install and run CSA 1.5 directly from your desktop or other development nodes.
Using Docker Compose, you can easily run a stand-alone Cloudera Streaming Analytics stack on your laptop or any other development node. The only pre-requisite is Docker. Head over to the Cloudera downloads page to get the docker-compose YAML file, and check out the documentation to get started in just a few minutes. There is an included tutorial to get your first stream processor built and running.
You can read more about the release in this blog post.
