Are job tracker and task trackers present in separate machines?..

Answer / Anwar Ahmad Khan

In older versions of Hadoop, the JobTracker and TaskTrackers were indeed on separate machines. However, in newer versions (Hadoop 2 and above), these components have been replaced by ResourceManager and NodeManager/DataNode, respectively, as part of Apache YARN (Yet Another Resource Negotiator). These components can run on the same machine or different machines depending on the cluster configuration.
