Question

I have to code in android for making an application which makes a call to an hadoop cluster node. I have an ip adress for the same i can login via putty on my windows machine.
I dont know how to make a call to that server from my android app?
And, how to run a executable jar file deployed on the hadoop node.

Any guidance or a sample code piece will be a big help.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I suggest you want to login via SSH and execute a command on a server?

The better way would be to write a small ‘server app’, that provides an interface via http to start the processing. (You might have a look at Sinatra)

If you prefer ssh, you should have a look at ssh java libraries.
