WORK IN PROGRESS
As part of completion of BIGTOP-996, we have created a list of HOW-TOs for bigtop, which will be maintained over time. Please notify and open a JIRA if any of these become obsolete.
Create a BigTop Hadoop VM cluster: hadoop cluster reproducible, easily destroyed/recreated, configurable hadoop sandbox cluster with vagrant
Create a BigTop Hadoop VM : Static one node hadoop cluster by loading a VM directly
Use the BigPetStore application to smoke test or demonstrate a hadoop deployment
Run the smoke tests + API tests for Apache BigTop's hadoop distribution on HDFS
Run BigTop Ecosystem interoperability smoke tests (proper subset of the full bigtop smoke tests).
Add a package for my new hadoop ecosystem tool "XYZ" to bigtop.
