Hadoop Live CD at OpenSolaris.org
This project initial CD development tool aims to provide new users to Hadoop with a fully functional Hadoop cluster that is easy to start up and use. We have built a bootable CD-ROM image that provides users with a three-node virtual Hadoop cluster using OpenSolaris Zones. The CD is “live”, meaning that it does not modify the contents of the user’s computer. This makes it ideal for those wishing to try out Hadoop without having to install any software.
