Excerpt

Scenario Description

Info

NOTE: All hardware in use for supporting the platform is maintained within the enterprise infrastructure on Azure.

  • Installation of 
    D s product
     on a node in Microsoft Azure
  • Installation of 
    D s item
    itemdatabases
     on the same node
  • Integration with a supported cluster for running jobs.
  • Base storage layer and backend datastore of ADLS or WASB
  • High availability or failover of the 
    D s node
     is not supported in Azure.
  • High availability of cluster components is automatically managed by the HDI cluster. 
    • Auto-management does not apply to non-Hadoop clusters, such as Azure Databricks.

For more information on deployment scenarios, see Supported Deployment Scenarios for Azure.

Product Limitations

  • The application user credentials are used to access to the HDI cluster. Details are provided below.
  • ADLS/Storage Blob access is only for the HDInsight cluster's primary storage. Additional storage accounts are not supported.
  • HDFS must be set as the base storage layer of the 
    D s platform
    . Details are provided later.
    • S3 integration and AWS-based integrations such as Redshift are not supported.
  • Use of HttpFS is not supported.
  • Security features such as Kerberos and secure impersonation are not supported.

For more information on the limitations of this deployment scenario, see Product Limitations.

Pre-requisities

Desktop Requirements

  • All desktop users of the platform should have a supported version of Google Chrome installed on their desktops.
    • For more information. see Desktop Requirements.
    • If a supported browser is not available within your enterprise, desktop users can install the 
      D s item
      itementerprise application
       as a separate application. For more information, see Install Desktop Application.
  • All desktop users must be able to connect to the EC2 instance through the enterprise infrastructure.

  4. Node: Review the system requirements for the node hosting the 
    D s platform
    . See System Requirements.
    1. The required set of ports must be enabled for listening. See System Ports.

    2. This node should be dedicated for 

      D s item
      itemuse
      .

  5. Databases:
    1. The platform utilizes a set of databases that must be accessed from the 
      D s node
      . Databases are installed as part of the workflow described later.
    2. For more information on the supported databases and versions, see System Requirements.
    3. For more information on database installation requirements, see Install Databases.
