The Teradata Appliance for Hadoop 5 platform delivers an enterprise-ready appliance solution for storing, managing, refining, and analyzing big data, comprised of structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data.
The Teradata Appliance for Hadoop 5 platform cabinets can be configured to contain only nodes for Hadoop, or a combination of nodes for Hadoop, Aster nodes, and a limited selection of Teradata nodes. The cabinets can also contain a selection of TMS servers and SAS HPA worker nodes. The Teradata Appliance for Hadoop 5 may contain a maximum of four clusters, whether they are Hadoop and/or Aster clusters.
- Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop (CDH), release 5.4 or later (includes the Teradata Connector for Hadoop (TDCH), which provides high-performance bi-directional data movement between a Teradata system and a Hadoop system)
- Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP), release 2.3 or later (includes the Teradata Connector for Hadoop (TDCH), which provides high-performance bi-directional data movement between a Teradata system and a Hadoop system)
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3 (SLES 11 SP3) operating system can be used with CDH 5.4 or later, and HDP 2.3 through 2.6.
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2-STND (SLES 12 SP2-STND) operating system can be used with CDH 5.11 or later, and HDP 2.6 or later.
- Three Master Nodes for Hadoop
- Three Data Nodes for Hadoop
- Three Master Nodes for Hadoop
- Three Data Nodes for Hadoop
- One Edge Node for Hadoop
- Three Master Nodes for Hadoop
- Three Data Nodes for Hadoop
Once the minimum is satisfied for HDP 2.3 or later, or CDH 5.4 or later, a Hadoop configuration can scale to include additional Data Nodes and Edge Nodes, as required for the site (with Edge Nodes placed above the Data Nodes).
- One Teradata 680 system
- One Teradata 2800 system (4+0 or 2+0 cliques)
- Channel nodes (for use with the 680 or 2800)
- SAS HPA worker nodes
- Aster nodes/clusters
