Hi, I am planning on running my MapReduce app on Amazon's EC2. I had a look at the public Hadoop images in the hadoop-images bucket and there is no image for the stable 0.18.3 release. The most recent Hadoop versions I see are 0.18.1 and 0.19.0. Which of those would be better to use? Or should I try and create my own AMI from one of the existing ones with the stable 0.18.3?
Who owns the AMIs in hadoop-images? If they are owned by the Hadoop project I'm surprised there isn't one for the stable 0.18.3 or a later 0.19.x. Thanks, John
