- Is Ubuntu a good O.S. for running Hadoop? I’ve tried to learn in the past using Red Hat & Infosphere Biginsights, but I need a free O.S. If you want a free O.S , ubuntu is good but if you are familiar with RedHat then you may want to have look at Scientific Linux (Its free as well)
- Is there a way to learn Hadoop without a static IP address? That was really a problem for me when dealing with Infosphere, since I travel frequently. If you got a laptop with you then thats all you need to learn hadoop. Hadoop can be installed in a pseudo distributed mode on a single machine and you can use it with localhost all the time.
