Is it possible to install Greenplum database on Mac? - greenplum

Is it possible to install Greenplum on Mac. I can only see database servers for SuSE and RedHat linux on this page.
I am having trouble to get started.Though i have tried sandbox VM, that works fine.

Greenplum is not bundled for Mac as a Pivotal distribution. Many developers, though, build and test Greenplum on Macs and most of the development stations used at Pivotal are Macs.
If the build instructions do not work for you there is a wiki page for building on that environment.

Can I use Hortonworks Sandbox on Mac M1?

I have installed Virtualbox developer preview on my Mac M1 and am trying to run Hortonworks Sandbox on it. However, the application keeps closing when I click 'Start' and I cannot find any information on my that is happening. The error message that showed up was 'You must specify a machine to start, using the command line.' When I looked up this error, everyone says to use an older version of Virtualbox but there is no older version that is compatible with Mac M1. Can someone tell me how I can fix this problem and run sandbox on my system?
Hortonworks doesn't exist as a company anymore, and the sandbox hasn't been updated since before M1 Macs were even available, so unless you want to run x86 VM in VirtualBox (or Docker image with Qemu), no, it's not possible.
Latest Hadoop 3 already supports ARM processors, and you can use Homebrew to install it. The Sandbox uses old Hadoop 2.7.3, last I checked.

What Deployment Modes Does OpenGauss Support?

I want to deploy an primary/standby cluster, but how many standby can i deploy at most? How many deployment modes does opengauss support?
For developers, I think a single node is friendly.
You can download the compression package from the official website and uncompress it. And you can run the simple installation script (install.sh in the simpleInstall directory) to install the openGauss database. Your Linux could be redhat, centos, or even Ubuntu (though the official doesn't announce the openGauss supports for Ubuntu), but I tested the openGauss can work running on Ubuntu.)

Can one create an MIQ Dev Appliance in Linux or Windows environment?

This README file provides a link to instructions on how to create the ManageIQ Appliance dev setup for a MAC OSX environment, but it says that Linux instructions are TBD. See Screenshot:
Are we truly limited to MAC OS for development? Are there no instructions out there for setting up in a Linux or Windows environment?
Thank you!

You can find the detailed guide here for different Linux distros.
Are we truly limited to MAC OS for development?
The main limitation is that Podman client On MacOS doesn't work properly. Since podman a tool for running Linux containers, you gonna need some remote linux machine running, in order to install the remote client and then setup ssh connection information in the podman-remote.conf file. (here)

scidb installation on single debian server

I would like to try scidb as a replacement for hdf5. I would like to test it on my Debian laptop (no clusters) to give it a try.
Is this possible? Might be that Debian (as opposed to Ubuntu) is not supported?
I had no luck with the installation instructions. The deployment script tells that my OS is not supported. The scidb userguide says about some pre-built packages (for Ubuntu, at least). But there is no hint on how to obtain them.
SciDB is limited to RedHat / CentOS, and to Ubuntu as of the 14.9 release. Folk who want to run it on other distros generally compile from code.
Information about how to obtain the sources (as well as current documentation and community discussion) can be found on the forums here ... http://www.scidb.org/forum/. You'll need to register as a forum user.
Specifically, have a look at http://www.scidb.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=364. There's a list of releases and links to code bundles there.
I installed SciDB several times using several ways (building from sources and installing from packages, installing the cluster version and the dev version).
Installation from packages
First, if you choose to install from packages (the easiest and fastest way), SciDB is very very sensitive about your Linux version. For example, for the last version of SciDB (14.8), if you choose to install on a Ubuntu, it has to be a Ubuntu 12.04 (and not a 14.04, a common mistake) 64 bits (meaning you have to install the AMD64 version even if you have an Intel processor). It won't work if you have a different version.
If you have an Ubuntu 12.04 AMD64, Paradigm4 provides a deployment script and a documentation with very simple steps:
https://github.com/Paradigm4/deployment
Installation from sources
It's not so difficult but it can be painful and time consuming. I did it because we had to compile a custom plugin for SciDB. You have two types of installation: dev install (in SciDB user directory) and cluster install (in /opt/ directory).
You have to be registered on their forum to have the link to the source code. They provide a specific documentation to build from source.
Good luck.
Several months ago I have dealt with porting SciDB 14.12 to an unsupported Linux - Fedora 19. If your OS is not supported, it will neither be supported if you try to install from the sources. You have to start from the sources, but then you have to adapt the deployment and installation scripts. The sources can be downloaded from SciDB forum.
Namely, add a new platform to deployment/common/os_detect.sh. Then, there are multiple platform specific deployment scripts, such as deployment/common/prepare_toolchain.sh, deployment/common/prepare_coordinator.sh and deployment/common/prepare_chroot.sh. You need to make sure those prepare the environment as they would on the supported OS'. I used Red Hat 6 and CentOS 6 as a reference, as those are both more similar to Fedora. Since your OS is Debian, you can first try falling back to Ubuntu deployment (in os_detect.sh).
Another problem you may encounter are the 3rd party tools, specially Boost. In my case, I had to build it manually from sources.
Sometimes when porting and debugging it is not convenient to run the scripts with deploy.sh, but it's better to run the deployment scripts directly on the target machine (e.g. coordinator).
Probably the best way to install and to start with SciDB is to download a standard image. With this image you only have to import the virtual machine with a software to virtualize. Moreover there are some characteristics of this virtual machine that are great to develop your first applications.
The main advantage, is that you have an API to SciDB queries and another to R. Then you can explore all options and to test SciDB.
This is the version that I downloaded few months ago: http://www.paradigm4.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=1329&sid=606f614e401900cfa750375ba56de656
Nevertheless, there is a problem, the community is too poor. There are little people developing with SciDB.

cannot install wls1034_linux32.bin

i am beginning to install soa Suite and oracle 10g express edition in my ubuntu system.
for this i am referring to quickstartsoasuite11g... .pdf guide.
As per the steps given in this guide, i installed oracle, but when i am trying to install wls1034_linux32.bin file, i get the following error on the terminal:
[/root/stageFMW/wls1034_linux32.bin]
End-of-central-directory signature not found.
** Error during init, error code = 2.
where am i getting wrong? how do i solve this error?
Oracle does not include Ubuntu in its list of supported Linux flavours. Basically it only certifies against "enterprise grade" distros such as RHEL, Suse and inevitably Oracle Enterprise Linux.
Almost certainly SOA Suite and Oracle XE will run on Ubuntu but you will need to tweak some stuff and/or download additional libraries. This is not a task for somebody who isn't familiar with the Oracle product set.
If you have a fairly beefy system you should consider running a virtualised environment. Oracle offers a VirtualBox install which will run on Ubuntu. You can then run the pre-built SOA Suite appliance.
(If you don't have a beefy system you're going to struggle with SOA Suite: running web servers, databases and JDeveloper sucks up a lot of compute power.)
I got that same error when I tried to install Jdevloper using root (super user). I corrected it by installing with a different user.
