Qlik Catalog installation on Amazon Linux 2 and Cloudera CDP

[OlegShidrikov]

Hi there!

1) AWS installation. As installation guide says, Qlik Catalog edge node should be RHEL/CentOS Linux 7. If I choose AWS EMR installation, is it possible to deploy QC on Amazon Linux? Or I should use Amazon Machine Image (AMI) with CentOS 7 for this purpose?

2) CDH/HDP installation. Both CDH and HDP solutions are now owned by Cloudera and the vendor recommends moving to CDP. Does QC support CDP installation?

Thanks!

Hi,
Cloudera installations are no longer supported. Now it is possible just to install on Linux (called Single-Node).

Best,

Brunno.
