Afterwards, the course introduced cloudera manager as an administration tool. The students were required to install small-sized clusters using either cloudera manager, Ambari or vanilla install.<\/p>\n<p>For the most part, the students definitely were able to carry out this task. Some sample installation reports are listed below:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/degenio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/TP-Mise-en-Place-dun-cluster_hortonworks_chababa_bousselham.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">TP &#8211; Mise en Place d&#8217;un cluster_hortonworks_CBH<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/degenio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/TP1Cluster_reza_naidji_conteneur_LXC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">TP1Cluster_reza_naidji_conteneur_LXC<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/degenio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/tp1_cloudera_mario_nadon.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Tp1_cloudera_mario_nadon<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Students were also required to choose a topic of their own for a final project.
