hortonworks website is NOT supporting download HDP Sandbox - hortonworks-data-platform

I am in need of HDP 2.3.2 on Sandbox for VMWARE,
but there seems a problem in Hortonworks website,and I can't find one for downloading on Internet.

Go to http://hortonworks.com/downloads/ .There you will find "Hortonworks Sandbox Archive". You can expand this chapter and find all released sandboxes for VirualBox and VMWare

Not able to download Cloudera

I am trying to find a link to download cloudera zip file on VMWare , but unable to get any.
Tried searching on google , on cloudera website , but in vain.
Can somebody share some views on it.
Cloudera indeed no longer provides a quickstart VM for the legacy CDH 5 platform, this can be seen here as you get redirected to CDP datacenter.
However be aware that CDH 5 relates to a very old distribution. I believe CDH 5 goes end of life this year. Even CDH 6 is not recommended for new clusters, as CDP 7 is already GA for a while. CDP, the Cloudera Data Platform is the successor to both CDH and HDP.
If you want to check out the latest version, there is a trial which should serve for most purposes that you may wanted to use the quickstart. This can be downloaded here.
Full disclosure: I am an employee of Cloudera, the company behind both CDH and CDP.
Seems Cloudera no longer supports Quickstart VM. I too faced this issue a month ago. I finally found a link to archived version here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnvheRZYLP4
In the description of the above link, you will find the Google drive link for Cloudera 5.13.0. That's all i was able to find.

are there different ways how to install a cloudera hadoop packages?

can I only install packages via RPM? (RedHat Package Management)
Im using Cloudera and I heard a couple times about CDH Parcel Services but im not sure, if i can do that with this too? or is there another mechanism?
best regards
If you're using Debian or Ubuntu, then you'd use DEB packages, not RPM.
Parcels should work
So would compiling code from source.
Just because you're running Cloudera doesn't make the system any less of a regular Linux machine
Parcels is Cloudera's way of installing their distribution. You install Cloudera Manager, and it will install all of the components using parcels (although I think you have a choice). This is done through a GUI (or API). This is probably the easiest way to go about it.
If you are just learning, the Quick Start VM is not a bad way to get started.
I have done installation of Cloudera using Parcels and it is easier than package installation. Parcels are quite conveniently picked up by Cloudera Manager for installation purposes. Almost everything is ready once parcel installation is done.

Is it possible to install Greenplum database on Mac?

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.

Suitable hadoop framework for ubuntu

I want to start working with Hadoop and BigData. I need an easy graphical interface to start. I try Hue but I couldn't get it configured.
Please help me to choose my suitable Hadoop.
I use Ubuntu 14.04.
I think Cloudera,sandbox(by hortonworks) is a easy way.Hard way is installation to Ubuntu.Also i have ubuntu 14.04 and Hadoop(hive,pig),Apache spark exist and i dont need open virtual machine.
There are 3 major Hadoop distributions that you can start with.
Cloudera
Hortonworks
MapR
Each one of them has a UI installer and manager. I think the best for you would be though, to use the virtual environment that these vendors provide.
The Hortonworks Developer Sandbox is an image including Hue as UI to get started. However, the downloadable sandbox image is based on CentOS.
If you want to install a Hortonworks Distribution on Ubuntu, you need to run an Ambari installation (Downloads - Hortonworks Hadoop). Be aware that Hue is not included into the default Ambari installation, but Hue can be installed easily separately. To run properly, Hue on Hortonworks still needs Python 2.6.x.
There are some distributions like Cloudera or Hortonworks but their package needs high machine configuration. For example RAM + 16GB and sometimes it's not possible for the user. In addition, they include some Hadoop related project that user doesn't need at all. If you want to enter this field seriously I strongly recommend installing Hadoop on your own. Doing that you do some configuration and will get familiar with many Hadoop concepts.
You can start using this install tutorial.

Cloudera support for docker container or Docker support for CM 5 image

Recently my org is considering Docker. Our group is using cloudera CDH 5.1.2.
1) Does cloudera compatable with Docker container?
2) Is there any known issue related to docker and cloudera combination?
I could not find any topic on docker in this forum.
Any pointer would be helpful.
Thanks,
Amit
An official answer from Cloudera has been posted here :
I read through what docker is, yesterday. I do not think this has
been tested, there are a number of platform virtualization projects in
progress, but I did not see this on the list.
Lookt at its intent, it might work but you would definately want to
test. The thing I'm concearned about is the level of effort to
normalize between distribution types as there are a large volume of
subcomponents that are brought directly into the CDH "Parcel" that are
platform specific.
You might be able to get a CM server and agents deployed in a generic
way, but then you would want CM to manage the deployment of CDH parcel
across the target "cluster" once it was online, rather than
abstracting that install as well.
Bottom line is installing Cloudera Manager inside a Docker container does not seem to be an easy route, because CM needs to manage the installation of the other Hadoop components.
Other options include:
Using Vagrant to create a CDH VM with Cloudera Manager (Cloudera Documentation Link)
Managing CDH components manually without cloudera Manager (Cloudera Documentation Link)
