This is a virtual machine sandbox image to practice and learn Big Data and Data Science applications.
Running Big Data applications (Spark / Cassandra / Hadoop) can be a little convoluted because of all the dependencies. This can be even more of a hassle in Windows. We hope this VM Sandbox will make things easier.
Elephant Scale teaches Big Data & AI / Data Science classes. This sandbox is a replica of our virtualized environment.

See intro lab for a screencast.
Connectivity:
- Use VM GUI : when you open this OVA file in a VM environment you will be logged into the Ubuntu desktop
- SSH via port 22
- from host machine
$ ssh -l student -p 2222 localhost
This VM is tested with following Big Data stack.
- Spark v2.x and v1.6
- BigDL 0.3+
- Cassandra v3.x
- Kafka v0.10
- Storm v1.x
- Zookeeper v3.4.8
If you are enrolled in our classes, you will get a lab bundle. Also you can run any open source labs as well.
