Installing Talend
If you haven't already downloaded Talend, follow these instructions. You are then ready to install Talend on the platform of your choice, Windows, OSX or Linux.
For the purpose of this documentation, we're installing Talend Open Studio (TOS) version 5.2 (which is the latest version at the time of writing).
Windows
There are two installers available for Windows, an executale or the universal ZIP file. My personal choice is for the ZIP file as this provides a no-install installation, on Windows.
Once you've downloaded the univeral ZIP file, unzip the file in to an appropriater location. On Windows, My preference is to create a directory C:\Talend. From my experience, universal installer sotware does not work well with directory paths that contain spaces so I would avoid Program Files.
OSX
Talend is installed on OSX, using the universal ZIP ile.
Once you've downloaded the univeral ZIP file, unzip the file in to an appropriater location. On OSX, software is usually installed in /Applications.
Unix and Linux
Talend is installed on UNIX and Linux, using the universal ZIP ile.
Once you've downloaded the univeral ZIP file, unzip the file in to an appropriater location. Software is often installed in /usr/local.
