Deploy Apache Eagle in the Production

This page outlines the steps for deploying Apache Eagle (called Eagle in the following) in the production environment.

Here’s the main content of this page:

• Setup Cluster Environment
• Start Eagle Service
  • Edit Configure files
  • Install metadata
• Rock with monitoring apps
• Stop Eagle Services

Setup Cluster Environment

Eagle requires a setup cluster environment to run monitoring applications. For more details, please check Environment

Start Eagle Service

• Step 1: Edit environment related configurations:

  • Edit bin/eagle-env.sh

      # TODO: make sure java version is 1.7.x
      export JAVA_HOME=
    
      # TODO: Apache Storm nimbus host. Default is localhost
      export EAGLE_NIMBUS_HOST=localhost
    
      # TODO: EAGLE_SERVICE_HOST, default is `hostname -f`
      export EAGLE_SERVICE_HOST=localhost
    

  • Edit conf/eagle-service.conf to configure the database to use (for example: HBase¹)

      # TODO: hbase.zookeeper.quorum in the format host1,host2,host3,...
      # default is "localhost"
      hbase-zookeeper-quorum="localhost"
    
      # TODO: hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort
      # default is 2181
      hbase-zookeeper-property-clientPort=2181
    
      # TODO: hbase configuration: zookeeper.znode.parent
      # default is "/hbase"
      zookeeper-znode-parent="/hbase"
    

• Step 2: Install metadata for policies

    $ cd <eagle-home>
  
    # start Eagle web service
    $ bin/eagle-service.sh start
  
    # import metadata after Eagle service is successfully started
    $ bin/eagle-topology-init.sh
  

You have now successfully installed Eagle and setup a monitoring site. Next you can

• Setup a monitoring site site management

• Create more policies with Eagle web policy management

• Enable resolver and classification functions of Eagle web data classification

Rock with Applications

Currently Eagle provides several analytics solutions for identifying security on a Hadoop² cluster. For example:

• HDFS Data Activity Monitoring
• HIVE Query Activity Monitoring³
• HBASE Data Activity Monitoring
• MapR FS Data Activity Monitoring
• Hadoop JMX Metrics Monitoring

Stop Services

• Stop eagle service

  $ bin/eagle-service.sh stop
