How to Setup a Single Node Hadoop Cluster Using Docker?
Abstract: 54a0f749c9e0a14c58904e3e
In this article, I will show you how to setup a single node hadoop cluster using Docker. Before I start with the setup, let me briefly remind you what Docker and Hadoop are.
Docker is a software containerization platform where you package your application with all the libraries, dependencies, environments in a container. This container is called docker container. With Docker, you can build, ship, run an application (software) on the fly.
For example, if you want to test an application on an ubuntu system, you need not setup a complete operating system on your laptop/desktop or start a virtual machine with ubuntu os. That will take a lot of time and space. You can simply start an ubuntu docker container which will have the environment, libraries you need to test your application on the fly.

how to install and run docker and containers in docker machineApache Hadoop is a framework that allows for the distributed processing of large data sets across clusters of computers. These days it is one of the most important technology in the industry. Now to use Hadoop to store and analyse huge amount of data, you need to setup a hadoop cluster. If you have done setting up of hadoop cluster before, you know its not a easy task.
What if I say, setting up a hadoop cluster is hardly 5-10 minutes job, will you believe me? I guess not!
Here is where Docker comes into picture, and using docker you can setup a hadoop cluster in no time.
Benefits of using Docker for setting up a hadoop cluster
- Installs and runs hadoop in no time.
- Uses the resources as per need, so no wastage of resource.
- Easily scalable, best suited for testing environments in hadoop cluster.
- No worries of hadoop dependencies, libraries etc. , docker will take care of it.
So let us see now how to setup a single node hadoop cluster using Docker. I am using Ubuntu 16.04 system and docker is already installed and configured on my system.
Before I setup a single node hadoop cluster using docker, let me just run simple example to see that docker is working correctly on my system.
Let me check if I have any docker image as of now.
hadoop@hadoop-VirtualBox:~$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMESI don't have any docker image as of now. Let me run a simple hello-world docker example.
hadoop@hadoop-VirtualBox:~$ docker run hello-world
Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.
To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:- The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
- The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
- The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
- The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
to your terminal. To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with: $ docker run -it ubuntu bash Share images, automate workflows, and more with a free Docker Hub account: https://hub.docker.com For more examples and ideas, visit: https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/
So now you know that docker is working properly. Let us go ahead and install hadoop in a docker container. To do so, we need a hadoop docker image. The below command will get me a hadoop-2.7.1 docker image.
hadoop@hadoop-VirtualBox:~$ sudo docker pull sequenceiq/hadoop-docker:2.7.1

bash-4.1#We successfully ran a single node hadoop cluster using docker. You saw, we had to do nothing to setup the hadoop cluster, and within no time we had an up and running hadoop cluster. As mentioned before, Docker is mostly used for testing environments, so if you want to test an hadoop application, setting up hadoop cluster in a docker container and testing the hadoop application is the easiest and fastest way.
