Will the most recent version of DSS run against HDP 2.3

[UserBird]

Just curious if DSS 2.0.2 will function with Hadoop Hortonworks Data Platform version 2.3 (most recent)? Compatibility doesn't have to be perfect, but would need to be able to execute normal read/writes to HDFS and execute Hive queries.



Also, is one able to connect to a Hadoop cluster in general using the Community Edition of DSS, or is that an Enterprise feature only?

Hi Matt,

We haven't yet had the opportunity to qualify DSS on HDP 2.3

There are a few known issues starting with HDP 2.2.4, related to the switch to Tez as the default execution engine. The main issue is that many interactions with Hive become extremely slow. This is related to the fact that a simple query like "show tables" on a new Hive instance now spins up a Tez context, which in turn starts up a YARN container.

We have some plans to improve this but they are not yet implemented as of DSS 2.0.2
