Installing Cloudera Data Science Workbench 1.9.0

There are two ways to install Cloudera Data Science Workbench 1.9.0.

• Using a Custom Service Descriptor (CSD) and Parcel - Starting with version 1.2.x, Cloudera Data Science Workbench is available as an add-on service for Cloudera Manager. Two files are required for this type of installation: a CSD JAR file that contains all the configuration needed to describe and manage the new Cloudera Data Science Workbench service, and the Cloudera Data Science Workbench parcel. To install this service, first download and copy the CSD file to the Cloudera Manager Server host. Then use Cloudera Manager to distribute the Cloudera Data Science Workbench parcel to the relevant gateway hosts.

  Note that this installation mode does not apply to CDSW-on-HDP deployments.

  or

• Using a Package (RPM) - You can install the Cloudera Data Science Workbench package directly on your cluster's gateway or edge hosts. In this case, you will not be able to manage the Cloudera Data Science Workbench service from a cluster manager such as Cloudera Manager or Ambari.
