Write an Ansible Playbook to deploy your Hadoop Cluster

We use Ansible to automate cloud provisioning, configuration management, deployment and other IT operations by simply writing playbooks. It is an open-source tool that increases our productivity at a large scale, saving us a lot of time and hassle when we need to perform configuration management on multiple nodes.

In this article, we’ll be automating a Hadoop cluster setup with the help of Ansible. To keep things simple, our cluster comprises one VM as our control node for Ansible and two VMs as managed nodes, which will serve as the Name Node and Data Node in the Hadoop Cluster.
