Please write a report to explain the key steps. You may take screenshots. You may also explain the commands. You may include the following key steps.
1) Setup Hadoop
2) Setup HDFS and upload the datasets “test.txt” and “peterpan.txt” into HDFS.
3) Create a project in Eclipse, import the “WordCount.java”, configure the project, and export the “WordCount.jar” file.
4) Open a terminal, and run the “WordCount.jar” file on “test.txt” and “peterpan.txt” respectively.
Required submission materials:
a) The report should be a PDF file. Please use a text editor, such as Microsoft Word, to write a report. Please transfer the file into a PDF file and then submit it.
b) Please also submit the output files, which should be renamed as follows.
