Hello, I am wondering about the current Atlas functionality and the plans for Atlas moving forward. I have a project for which I would like to use Atlas but I wonder if it is the best tool for the job and if the current functionalities support the required tasks. I'm wondering about if/how Atlas can do the following tasks: - Manage unstructured data metadata that does not pass through HIVE - Import data profiling results from third party software - Track element level lineage or the lineage of particular columns of tables - Implement global rule definitions into Atlas Could Falcon be used for some of these? I'm currently using Atlas 0.5 for testing and imagine the same version will be used throughout the project. Thanks, John ... View more

Hello, I am wondering how to properly update the Atlas version from 0.5 to 0.6. I've been following the steps listed at: http://atlas.incubator.apache.org/0.6.0-incubating/InstallationSteps.html I'm a bit unsure as to where I should place the contents within the atlas folder. I was transferring the contents of the atlas-${project.version} to my /usr/hdp/current/atlas-server/ folder, after I created a backup of the atlas-server folder. Then I created a new conf folder in /etc/atlas. I created a soft-link between the conf in the atlas-server folder and the new conf folder (mimicking the setup of the original atlas-server folder). The server seems to start when I run atlas_start.py but then if I try to run quick_start.py the command just hangs. From Ambari, I get an error about hdp version check failed. Is this the correct procedure or is there another way to update to 0.6? (Sorry I can't provide snapshots, I performed the install at home and wanted to try and update to 0.6 on our work cluster) Thanks, John ... View more
