Deploying Hadoop Using Docker Containers:What Works and What Doesn’t.

While Docker is popular as a development tool, not many production systems are using it today for virtualization. As a result, operating Docker at scale is a non-trivial task, especially in the context of Big Data deployments.

This presentation will provide the audience with the foundation and core understanding of the issues involved in using Docker for Hadoop deployment, plus some of the patterns to follow and pitfalls to avoid especially from the operations and DevOps point of view.

In order to run large scale multi-tenant Hadoop clusters certain challenges in the areas of resource control and security need to be addressed. Nasser’s company leverages Docker on bare metal in order to partition machine resources without too much overhead, providing light-weight virtual machines as compute nodes for Hadoop.

This talk touches upon some of the issues the team had to address for deploying and maintaining such setup:
● Containers vs Virtual Machines
Why it makes sense to use containers, rather than virtual machines, to provide resource limits and isolation for Hadoop components

● Key issues with containers
What can go wrong if one uses containers with Hadoop?

● Hadoop in Docker, or Docker in Hadoop?
Understanding the two main models to use Docker with Hadoop.

● Resource allocation and configuration management:
How to configure containers for a datanode vs a nodenamager vs a namenode, finding the optimal number of containers per machine, and sizing containers.

● Monitoring, Metrics, and Troubleshooting:
How to make Hadoop know about the health of the Docker containers in order to distribute jobs properly, and how to collect for proper reporting on resource utilization.

● Disk and network access:
How to make sure that Docker can access only certain parts of the disk allocated to HDFS, and how to make containers leverage the high-bandwidth, high-throughput network infrastructure purpose-built for Hadoop.
