Big Data Lab Setup

Now that we are ready to start, first we need machines, since we can't have many machines at home or office, we need to rely on the virtual machines. There is another concept of dockers which we would explorer later.

So figure out if you have some PC either new or old or be nice to your manager and try to obtain an old server in the office that you can use to create the Virtual Machines.

The lab setup would be done using VSphere Hypervisor. This is a free version and does not come with any UI. Sign up and install it on the box. The version as of this date is VMWare vSphere 6 Hypervisor version VMWare ESXi, 6.0.0, 3029758

The client for creating the VM is done using the vSphere Client. Download this and connect to your server from any other laptop or desktop with a UI. The version as of this date is vSphere Client version 6.0.0 Build 3016447.

If you already have the machines skip this class.
