In Chapter 6, you learned about Oozie’s main components and their functionality. Oozie is a large, complicated system, and the simplest way to explain how you use it in real-world applications is to show an end-to-end example.
In this chapter, you learn how to design and implement all kinds of Oozie jobs (including Workflow, Coordinator, and Bundle jobs). You learn some implementation approaches for Oozie Workflow actions, and trade-offs that you must consider. You also learn how to install and invoke different types of Oozie jobs, and how to interact with them using the Oozie console.
The end-to-end implementation presented here showcases most of the Oozie capabilities and explains typical Oozie usage. Throughout the chapter, you build the end-to-end implementation step-by-step to help solve a real-world problem. Let’s start with a description of the problem that you will be solving.
