Applications for Cloudera Desktop

The following applications ship with the current version of the Cloudera Desktop:

File Browser

The File Browser lets you navigate data stored on your Hadoop cluster as easily as that on your local file system. You can browse the directory structure, examine file contents, edit permissions, rename files and directories, and even edit and upload files from within your Web browser.

Job Browser

The Job Browser enables you to examine the history and the current status of your Hadoop cluster in detail. Follow the progress of running jobs, identify and debug failed jobs and get more details on how your analyses are performing over time.

Cluster Health

See the state of your cluster at a glance with the Cluster Health application. It collects and displays a variety of metrics in real time so that you can pin down problems with your cluster. Define custom alerts to ensure that you catch minor problems before they become major.

Job Designer

Create MapReduce, Streaming, and Pig templates for commonly run jobs that can be reused later by anyone. Submit MapReduce jobs to your Hadoop cluster from your browser!
