Re: [gentoo-user] Clusters on Gentoo ?

[Alec Ten Harmsel]

I'm a Hadoop and related software sysadmin at the University of 
Michigan. I'm a student still, so it's only a part-time position. I 
have some documentation at http://caen.github.io/hadoop - if something 
is not clear, I will gladly take feedback and make appropriate changes.

 I'll try to chime in on any questions about scheduling/clusters in the 
future as we have a pretty large installation (~20,000 cores) running a 
traditional HPC stack, and a small Hadoop cluster.

Hadoop is currently "stable" on 2.x (specifically 2.4), so relevant 
documentation is at http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/stable.
