Re: ANN: Hadoop UI beta
+1 wow .., looks fantastic ... :) On the summary it's said it works only for 0.19. Just curious, does it work with the hadoop trunk .. Thanks!

Hadoo UI currently includes a HDFS file explorer and basic job tracking features. Get it here: http://code.google.com/p/hadoop-ui/ As this is the first release it may (and does) still contain bugs, but I'd like to give everyone the chance to send feedback as early as possible. Give it a try :) - Stefan
Re: ANN: Hadoop UI beta
hi, its really helpful in the sense that it helps me to directly delete or rename the files on the HDFS.but is there ny problem while creating dir using the mkdir option. also can it show the history of tasktrackers?

Re: ANN: Hadoop UI beta
Hey Stefan, I like it. I would like to hear a bit how the security policies work. If I open this up to the world, how does the world authenticate/authorize with my cluster? I'd love nothing more to be able to give my users a dead-simple way to move files on and off the cluster. This appears to be a step in the right direction. I'm not familiar with Adobe Flex -- how will this affect other's abilities to use it (i.e., Linux Mac folks?) and how will this affect the ability to contribute (i.e., if you get a new job, are the users of this project screwed?). Gah, I sound like my boss.

If I open this up to the world, how does the world authenticate/authorize with my cluster? Not at all. The daemon part of Hadoop UI is running under a configurable user and will issue calls to Hadoop on behalf of this user. Its not much different from the standard web UI in this domain. The plan is to introduce a authentication layer with one of the next releases. It will be based on Spring Security and thus enables you to use many different authentication providers. So downloading all those Spring libraries along with the project will finally pay off ;) I'd love nothing more to be able to give my users a dead-simple way to move files on and off the cluster.

Gah, I sound like my boss. Theres nothing arcane about Flex, but please don't tell anybody. You can get the recently open sourced (MPL) SDK for any platform supporting Java and compile Hadoop UI using ant. Other libraries used are flexlib (MIT license), Spring (Apache L.), BlazeDS (LGPL). In case I would have to look for a new job, as you suggest, other people would be able to fork as long as they know some Action Script, the actual language used in Flex, and some XML. - Stefan
