Whirr is a Java library for quickly setting up services in the cloud. For example, using Whirr you can start a <a title=\"Apache Hadoop\" href=\"http:\/\/hadoop.apache.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hadoop<\/a> cluster on Amazon in 5 minutes by configuring a simple property file and running the whirr command-line tool. See the <a title=\"Apache Whirr Quick Start Guide\" href=\"http:\/\/whirr.apache.org\/docs\/0.7.1\/quick-start-guide.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">quick start guide<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n<p>Hadoop is only one of the supported services however. Whirr supports several NoSQL databases or distributed computing platforms and tools. Currently Whirr supports <a title=\"Apache HBase\" href=\"http:\/\/hbase.apache.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HBase<\/a>, <a title=\"Apache Hama\" href=\"http:\/\/incubator.apache.org\/hama\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hama<\/a>, <a title=\"Ganglia\" href=\"http:\/\/ganglia.sourceforge.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ganglia<\/a>, <a title=\"Apache Zookeeper\" href=\"http:\/\/zookeeper.apache.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zookeeper<\/a>, <a title=\"ElasticSearch\" href=\"http:\/\/www.elasticsearch.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ElasticSearch<\/a>, <a title=\"Apache Mahout\" href=\"http:\/\/mahout.apache.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mahout<\/a>, <a title=\"Puppet\" href=\"http:\/\/puppetlabs.com\/\">Puppet<\/a>, <a title=\"Chef\" href=\"http:\/\/www.opscode.com\/chef\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chef<\/a> and <a title=\"Voldemort\" href=\"http:\/\/project-voldemort.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Voldemort<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One of my contributions was the Mahout service which installs the Mahout binary distribution on a given node. When used in conjunction with Hadoop you can have a fully operational Mahout cluster in minutes. For more information about using the Mahout service checkout this <a title=\"blog\" href=\"http:\/\/www.searchworkings.org\/blog\/-\/blogs\/apache-whirr-includes-mahout-support\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">blog on Mahout support in Whirr<\/a>\u00a0on the community site <a title=\"SearchWorkings community\" href=\"http:\/\/www.searchworkings.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SearchWorkings.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>More services are continuously being added to Whirr. For instance the <a title=\"Solr\" href=\"http:\/\/lucene.apache.org\/solr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Solr<\/a> and <a title=\"MongoDB\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mongodb.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MongoDB<\/a> services are planned for the upcoming 0.8.0 release.
