HDFS, or Hadoop Distributed File System, is a distributed file system used to store and process large datasets across multiple nodes. In this tutorial, we will install HDFS on NixOS Latest.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
Step 1: Add Hadoop Configuration
Add the following lines to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix
:
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
hadoop
];
Step 2: Activate Hadoop Service
Next, enable the Hadoop service by adding the following to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix
:
services.hadoop = {
enable = true;
dfs = {
enable = true;
namenode = {
enable = true;
};
datanode = {
enable = true;
};
};
};
Step 3: Reload and Activate Configuration
Reload the configuration and activate the Hadoop Service by running the following commands:
$ sudo nixos-rebuild switch
Step 4: Verify Hadoop Installation
Finally, verify the installation by running the following command:
$ hadoop version
This should output the version of Hadoop installed on your system.
You have successfully installed HDFS on NixOS Latest!
In this tutorial, we learned how to install HDFS on NixOS Latest. Hadoop is a powerful tool that can be used for a variety of tasks, from processing large datasets to running distributed applications. With Hadoop, you can take advantage of the power of distributed computing and storage to solve complex problems.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
