Other Deployment Options

Besides Kubernetes, Dremio provides other options for deployment described in this section.

Shared Multi-Tenant Environment

If you plan on using a shared multi-tenant environment, Dremio provides a model that uses YARN for deployment:

  • Dremio with Hadoop - Dremio on Hadoop in YARN deployment. Dremio integrates with YARN ResourceManager to secure compute resources in a shared multi-tenant environment.

    note

    Co-locating Dremio with Hadoop/NoSQL: When Dremio is co-located with a Hadoop cluster (such as HDFS) or distributed NoSQL database (such as Elasticsearch or MongoDB), it is important to utilize containers (cgroups, Docker, and YARN containers) to ensure adequate resources for each process.

    Dremio features a high-performance asynchronous engine that minimizes the number of threads and context switches under heavy load. So, unless containers are utilized, the operating system may over-allocate resources to other thread-hungry processes on the nodes.

Standalone Cluster

If you plan on creating a standalone cluster, Dremio provides the flexibility to deploy Dremio as a standalone on-premise cluster:

  • Dremio with Your Infrastructure - Dremio on a standalone on-premise cluster. In this scenario, a Hadoop cluster is not available and the data is not in a single distributed NoSQL database.
