The big data products process different types of jobs on the Hadoop cluster.
The types of jobs that you run depend on your product licenses and business requirements. When you install Enterprise Data Catalog, you can choose to use an external cluster or to create an embedded cluster. When you create an embedded cluster, the installer creates the cluster on the node where the Informatica services run.
You can use an embedded cluster if you do not also run Big Data Management or
Enterprise Data Preparation
in the same domain.
Plan the type of cluster you want to run for Enterprise Data Catalog.
