Custom Radoop Proxy Installation

You can enable Radoop Proxy throughout the RapidMiner Server installation process, or, if using containers, during a docker-compose deployment. However, if for some reason you wish to install it later on, follow one of the chapters below, depending on your use-case.

The Radoop Proxy associated with a Radoop Connection is automatically disabled when a RapidMiner Radoop process is executed on RapidMiner Server. In this case, make sure to enable ‘Force Radoop Proxy on Server’ by editing the Radoop Connection in question. Further information can be found on the Radoop installation on Server page.

Adding Radoop Proxy to RapidMiner Server startup process

Follow the steps in this chapter if you have a classic (i.e. non-containerized) RapidMiner Server installation.

  1. Edit the file bin/standalone.conf[.bat] in the RapidMiner Server installation directory. Find the line containing RADOOP_PROXY_ENABLED property, and modify it:

     SET RADOOP_PROXY_ENABLED=true
    

    If RapidMiner Server is registered as a Windows service, apply the changes to bin/service.bat as well.

  2. If necessary, modify the port used by Radoop Proxy in radoop-proxy/proxy.properties in the RapidMiner Server installation directory. The properties are explained below.

  3. After you saved the modifications, restart RapidMiner Server.

Adding Radoop Proxy to a container-based RapidMiner Server deployment

If you have a container-based RapidMiner Server deployment and you wish to add a Radoop Proxy to it, simply follow the description on the Radoop Proxy container page. You will have to specify the authentication method, address and port of the RapidMiner Server. We recommend a docker-compose based approach, for easy reproducibility.

Standalone Radoop Proxy

The standalone Radoop Proxy can come in handy when you are not using a RapidMiner Server at all in your workflow, and all you need is to access your Hadoop cluster (which is in a secured network location) from your RapidMiner Studio.

The preferred way of doing this is to deploy the Radoop Proxy Docker container. To do this, simply follow the description on the Radoop Proxy container page.

You will have to specify a username and password. We recommend a docker-compose based approach, for easy reproducibility.

If you are looking for steps on how to install a standalone Radoop Proxy without Docker containers, see the previous version of this document.
