The Alluxio binaries must be on your machine. You can either , or .
Alluxio unifies access to different storage systems through the feature. An WEB location can be either mounted at the root of the Alluxio namespace or at a nested directory.
Configure Alluxio to use under storage systems by modifying conf/alluxio-site.properties. If it does not exist, create the configuration file from the template.
the following environment variable assignment needs to be added to conf/alluxio-site.properties, and we actually support both http:// and https:// protocols.
Specify the settings for parsing a WEB page(Optional):

To verify that Alluxio is running, you can visit , or see the log in the logs folder.
