Abstract
Systems and methods are described herein for administration of a Hadoop distributed computing network. The described embodiments include a graphical user interface (GUI) that facilitates administration and setup of a Hadoop system by removing the need for the administrator to enter complicated commands via a command line interface. The GUI also provides a visual indicator of the setup progress of the Hadoop system, among other benefits.
Claims21
A system for administration of a Hadoop distributed computing network comprising:
- a Hadoop cluster comprising at least one name node computer and a plurality of data node computers;
- an administration computer comprising a processor and computer readable memory having stored thereon computer executable instructions for implementing a Hadoop adapter configured to receive user input and convert the user input into computer executable instructions for administering the Hadoop cluster;
- and
- a graphical user interface configured to provide the user input to the Hadoop adapter of the administration computer, the graphical user interface comprising:
- an inventory module configured to receive the user input for administering the Hadoop cluster,
- a configuration module configured to communicate the computer executable instructions for administering the Hadoop cluster to at least one of the name node computer and one or more data node computers and provide a visual indication of a configuration status of the at least one of the name node computer and the one or more data node computers, and
- an administration module configured to provide status with respect to one or more computer executable processes associated with the Hadoop cluster.
A method of administering a Hadoop distributed computing network via a computer implemented graphical user interface, the method comprising:
- receiving, via the computer implemented graphical user interface, user input for administering a Hadoop cluster comprising a name node computer and a plurality of data node computers;
- transforming the user input into computer executable instructions for administering the Hadoop cluster and storing said instructions in non-transitory computer readable medium;
- communicating the computer executable instructions for administering the Hadoop cluster to at least one of the name node computer and one or more data node computers;
- providing, via the computer implemented graphical user interface, a visual indication of a configuration status of the at least one name node computer and the one or more data node computers;
- and
- providing, via the computer implemented graphical user interface, a status with respect to one or more computer executable processes associated with the Hadoop cluster.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon computer executable instructions for administering a Hadoop distributed computing network via a graphical user interface, the instructions comprising:
- receiving user input for administering a Hadoop cluster comprising a name node computer and a plurality of data node computers;
- transforming the user input into computer executable instructions for administering the Hadoop cluster;
- communicating the computer executable instructions for administering the Hadoop cluster to at least one of the name node computer and one or more data node computers;
- providing a visual indication of a configuration status of the at least one name node computer and the one or more data node computers;
- and
- providing a status with respect to one or more computer executable processes associated with the Hadoop cluster.
