Custom Service Descriptor Files
Integrating an add-on service requires a Custom Service Descriptor (CSD) file. A CSD file contains all the configuration needed to describe and manage a new service. A CSD is provided in the form of a JAR file.
Depending on the service, the CSD and associated software may be provided by Cloudera or by an ISV. The integration process assumes that the add-on service software (parcel or package) has been installed and is present on the cluster. The recommended method is for the ISV to provide the software as a parcel, but the actual mechanism for installing the software is up to the ISV. The instructions in Installing an Add-on Service assume that you have obtained the CSD file from the Cloudera repository or from an ISV. It also assumes you have obtained the service software, ideally as a parcel, and have or will install it on your cluster either prior to installing the CSD or as part of the CSD installation process.
