You can install MySQL 5.5 or later.

Before You Begin

On the Ambari host, install the JDBC driver for MySQL, and then add it to Ambari:

  1. yum install mysql-connector-java* \
  2. sudo ambari-server setup --jdbc-db=mysql \

Steps

  1. Log in to the node on which you want to install the MySQL metastore to use for SAM, Schema Registry, and Druid.

    4.  yum install mysql-community-server
    6.  systemctl start mysqld.service

  3. Obtain the randomly generated MySQL root password.
