Tom White commented on HADOOP-6392: ----------------------------------- Colocation is the default, but splitting the namenode/jobtracker is better for large clusters. Good point about using a larger instance for the master - I've opened HADOOP-6393 for this. > Run namenode and jobtracker on separate EC2 instances > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-6392 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6392 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: contrib/ec2 > Reporter: Tom White > Assignee: Tom White > > Replace concept of "master" with that of "namenode" and "jobtracker".
