Is there a difference between installing ambari via the apache docs
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBARI/Installation+Guide+for+Ambari+2.7.3>
vs Hortonworks docs
<https://docs.cloudera.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari-2.7.4.0/bk_ambari-installation/content/download_the_ambari_repo_lnx7.html>
?

I assume that the end result is exactly the same since Hortonworks labels
the distribution in the docs as "Apache" and the repo they instruct to add
uses apache.org as the package URL:
[root@HW001 ~]# yum info ambari-server
Installed Packages
Name        : ambari-server
Arch        : x86_64
Version     : 2.7.3.0
Release     : 139
Size        : 418 M
Repo        : installed
>From repo   : ambari-2.7.3.0
Summary     : Ambari Server
URL         : http://www.apache.org
License     : (c) Apache Software Foundation
Description : Maven Recipe: RPM Package.

However, the installation instructions that the ambari project site links
to are different and only involve building from source via maven (and seem
to nowhere mention installation options via package manager), so gives me
pause as to whether these are exactly the same.

Could anyone with more experience here explain this a bit more to me?
