First of all the latest release which was using Docker on public clouds (AWS, GCP and Azure) was 1.2.3. The 1.3.0 or newer versions are not using Docker to run the Hadoop services. Anyway for 1.2.3 the answers are: 1. Containers were started with net=host, thus there was one container per VM - Docker was mostly used for packaging and distribution - thus every node had one container. You needed as many nodes as the size of the cluster was. 2. You can but the container was getting the full VM resources (see #1) 3. You need to install the Cloudbreak application (anywhere, that can be an EC2 instance for example but on-prem as well). The Cloudbreak application - note it's not the cluster - is composed of several micro-services, and these are running inside containers. Can be GUI or CLI or API - every hostgroup can have different instance types, the cluster can be heteregenous. 4. http://sequenceiq.com/cloudbreak-docs/ 5. It depends on the number of nodes you'd like to provision. There are no additional costs on top of EC price thus yo ucan do a fairly easy math - multiply the number of nodes you think your cluster will have with the number of hours ... In Cloudbreak you can fully track usage costs on the Accounts tab. ... View more

Salut Constantin Currently this is tech preview due to some limitations - there are some changes undergoing within Mesos (unified containerizes, IP per container, reverse lookups, storage drivers, etc to name a few) - so expect a large change here. Nevertheless if someone is happy with the current limitations (namely running with net=host) the code is stable and works well (we and a few others have test/dev clusters). Should you want more details drop me a mail. Janos ... View more
