Hadoop on Windows with Eclipse -02- Prerequisites

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure the following components are installed on your workstation:

• jdk1.8.0_144 
• eclipse-jee-oxygen 

Installing Cygwin

After installing the prerequisite software, the next step is to install the Cygwin environment. Cygwin is a set of Unix packages ported to Microsoft Windows. It is needed to run the scripts supplied with Hadoop because they are all written for the Unix platform.

To install the cygwin environment follow these steps:

1. Download cygwin installer from http://www.cygwin.com.
