Re: [survey] [spark-ec2] What do you like/dislike about spark-ec2?

Hi Everybody!

Thanks for participating in the spark-ec2 survey. The full results are
publicly viewable here:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1VC3YEcylbguzJ-YeggqxntL66MbqksQHPwbodPz_RTg/viewanalytics

The gist of the results is as follows:

Most people found spark-ec2 useful as an easy way to get a working Spark
cluster to run a quick experiment or do some benchmarking without having to
do a lot of manual configuration or setup work.

Many people lamented the slow launch times of spark-ec2, problems getting
it to launch clusters within a VPC, and broken Ganglia installs. Some also
mentioned that Hadoop 2 didn't work as expected.

Wish list items for spark-ec2 included faster launches, selectable Hadoop 2
versions, and more configuration options.

If you'd like to add your own feedback to what's already there, I've
decided to leave the survey open for a few more days:

As noted before, your results are anonymous and public.

Thanks again for participating! I hope this has been useful to the
community.

Hi Nick,

I forgot to mention in the survey that ganglia is never installed properly
for some reasons.

I have this exception every time I launched the cluster:

Starting httpd: httpd: Syntax error on line 154 of
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load
/etc/httpd/modules/mod_authz_core.so into server:
/etc/httpd/modules/mod_authz_core.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory

[FAILED]

Best Regards,

Jerry
