How to install Apache Spark on HortonWorks HDP 2.2 (built using Ambari)

Knows Not Much picture Knows Not Much · Dec 23, 2014 · Viewed 7.3k times · Source

I successfully built a 5 node cluster of HortonWorks HDP 2.2 using Ambari.

However I don't see Apache Spark in the installed services list.

I did some research and found that Ambari does not install certain components like hue etc. ( Spark was not in that list, but I guess its not installed).

How do I do a manual install of Apache spark on my 5 node HDP 2.2?

Or should I delete my cluster and perform a fresh install without using Ambari?

Hortonworks support for Spark is arriving but not fully complete (details and blog).

Instructions for how to integrate Spark with HDP can be found here.
