Using Storm in Cloudera

I have been looking to use Storm which is available with Hortonworks 2.1 installation but in order to avoid installing Hortonworks in addition to a Cloudera installation (which has Spark in it), I tried to find a way to use Storm in Cloudera.

If one can use both Storm and Spark on a single platform then it will save additional resources required to have both Cloudera and Hortonworks installations on a machine.

You can use storm with Cloudera installation. You will have to install it on your own and maintain it as such. It will not be part of the Cloudera stack but that should not stop you from using it along with Hadoop if you need it.
