Intelligently Collecting Data at the Edge - Intro to Apache MiNiFiDataWorks Summit
Apache NiFi provided a revolutionary data flow management system with a broad range of integrations with existing data production, consumption, and analysis ecosystems, all covered with robust data delivery and provenance infrastructure. Now learn about the follow-on project which expands the reach of NiFi to the edge, Apache MiNiFi. MiNiFi is a lightweight application which can be deployed on hardware orders of magnitude smaller and less powerful than the existing standard data collection platforms. With both a JVM compatible and native agent, MiNiFi allows data collection in brand new environments — sensors with tiny footprints, distributed systems with intermittent or restricted bandwidth, and even disposable or ephemeral hardware. Not only can this data be prioritized and have some initial analysis performed at the edge, it can be encrypted and secured immediately. Local governance and regulatory policies can be applied across geopolitical boundaries to conform with legal requirements. And all of this configuration can be done from central command & control using an existing NiFi with the trusted and stable UI data flow managers already love.
Expected prior knowledge / intended audience: developers and data flow managers should have passing knowledge of Apache NiFi as a platform for routing, transforming, and delivering data through systems (a brief overview will be provided). The talk will focus on extending the data collection, routing, provenance, and governance capabilities of NiFi to IoT/edge integration via MiNiFi.

The newly enacted GDPR regulations which become effective in 2018 require comprehensive protection of personal information of EU subjects. In this paper, we outline a solution that discovers and classifies personal data that is subject to GDPR in Hadoop ecosystem and uses such precise classification to automatically create a robust set of policies for authorization. The solution consists of using Dataguise’s DgSecure sensitive data detection to automatically classify sensitive data assets in Apache Atlas and author comprehensive and robust authorization policies via Apache Ranger. DgSecure is used to detect sensitive data in Hive databases and continuously update the classification in Apache Atlas via tags. Apache Atlas tags are used to create Apache Ranger policies that protect access to sensitive HDFS files, Hive tables, and Hive columns. We demonstrate a workflow where the components of the solution are automated requiring little or no manual intervention to provide protection of such sensitive data in Hadoop clusters.
Introduction to Hadoop, Hive, Spark, HDFS, NiFi, Zeppelin, Ambari and other Hadoop / Apache Big Data Tools. With a focus on pure open source and HDP 2.6 from Hortonworks.
Apache Hadoop YARN is the modern Distributed Operating System. It enables the Hadoop compute layer to be a common resource-management platform that can host a wide variety of applications. Multiple organizations are able to leverage YARN in building their applications on top of Hadoop without themselves repeatedly worrying about resource management, isolation, multi-tenancy issues etc.
In this talk, we’ll first hit the ground with the current status of Apache Hadoop YARN – how it is faring today in deployments large and small. We will cover different types of YARN deployments, in different environments and scale.
We'll then move on to the exciting present & future of YARN – features that are further strengthening YARN as the first-class resource-management platform for datacenters running enterprise Hadoop. We’ll discuss the current status as well as the future promise of features and initiatives like – 10x scheduler throughput improvements, docker containers support on YARN, support for long running services (alongside applications) natively without any changes, seamless application upgrades, fine-grained isolation for multi-tenancy using CGroups on disk & network resources, powerful scheduling features like application priorities, intra-queue preemption across applications and operational enhancements including insights through Timeline Service V2, a new web UI and better queue management.

A Comprehensive Approach to Building your Big Data - with Cisco, Hortonworks ...Hortonworks
Companies in every industry look for ways to explore new data types and large data sets that were previously too big to capture, store and process. They need to unlock insights from data such as clickstream, geo-location, sensor, server log, social, text and video data. However, becoming a data-first enterprise comes with many challenges.
Join this webinar organized by three leaders in their respective fields and learn from our experts how you can accelerate the implementation of a scalable, cost-efficient and robust Big Data solution. Cisco, Hortonworks and Red Hat will explore how new data sets can enrich existing analytic applications with new perspectives and insights and how they can help you drive the creation of innovative new apps that provide new value to your business.
As organizations pursue Big Data initiatives to capture new opportunities for data-driven insights, data governance has become table stakes both from the perspective of external regulatory compliance as well as business value extraction internally within an enterprise. This session will introduce Apache Atlas, a project that was incubated by Hortonworks along with a group of industry leaders across several verticals including financial services, healthcare, pharma, oil and gas, retail and insurance to help address data governance and metadata needs with an open extensible platform governed under the aegis of Apache Software Foundation. Apache Atlas empowers organizations to harvest metadata across the data ecosystem, govern and curate data lakes by applying consistent data classification with a centralized metadata catalog.
In this talk, we will present the underpinnings of the architecture of Apache Atlas and conclude with a tour of governance capabilities within Apache Atlas as we showcase various features for open metadata modeling, data classification, visualizing cross-component lineage and impact. We will also demo how Apache Atlas delivers a complete view of data movement across several analytic engines such as Apache Hive, Apache Storm, Apache Kafka and capabilities to effectively classify, discover datasets.
Unlock Value from Big Data with Apache NiFi and Streaming CDCHortonworks
Apache NiFi is an easy to use, powerful, and reliable system to process and distribute data. It provides an end-to-end platform that can collect, curate, analyze, and act on data in real-time, on-premises, or in the cloud with a drag-and-drop visual interface. It’s being used across industries on large amounts of data that had stored in isolation which made collaboration and analysis difficult.
Join industry experts from Hortonworks and Attunity as they explain how Apache NiFi and streaming CDC technology provides a distributed, resilient platform for unlocking the value of data in new ways.
Spark plays an important role on data scientists to solve all kinds of problems, especially the release of SparkR which provide very friendly APIs for traditional data scientists. However, processing various data size, data format and models will lead to different application patterns compared with traditional R. In this talk, we will illustrate the practical experience that using SparkR to solve some typical data science problems, such as the performance improvement for SparkR and native R interoperation, how to load data from HBase which is a very common data source efficiently, how to schedule a large scale machine learning job with multiple single R machine learning jobs, how to tuning performance for jobs triggered by many different users, how to use SparkR in the cloud-based environment, etc. At last, we will shortly introduce the community efforts in progress on SparkR in the coming releases.

Apache NiFi is becoming a defacto tool for handling orchestration, routing and mediation of data in the highly complex and heterogeneous world of Big Data, connecting many components (in-motion and at-rest) of its ecosystem into one homogenous and secure data flow. And while features such as security, provenance, dynamic prioritization and extensibility have long captured the attention of the enterprises, the innovation in NiFi land continues. This hands-on talk consisting of live demos and code will concentrate on what’s new an exciting in the world of NiFi. It will cover the newest and most advanced features of NiFi as well as demonstrate some of the "work in progress" essentially giving you a preview into the future.
Connecting the Drops with Apache NiFi & Apache MiNiFiDataWorks Summit
Demand for increased capture of information to drive analytic insights into an organizations' assets and infrastructure is growing at unprecedented rates. However, as data volume growth soars, the ability to provide seamless ingestion pipelines becomes operationally complex as the magnitude of data sources and types expands.
This talk will focus on the efforts of the Apache NiFi community including subproject, MiNiFi; an agent based architecture and its relation to the core Apache NiFi project. MiNiFi is focused on providing a platform that meets and adapts to where data is born while providing the core tenets of NiFi in provenance, security, and command and control. These capabilities provide versatile avenues for the bi-directional exchange of information across data and control planes while dealing with the constraints of operation at opposite ends of the scale spectrum tackling the first and last miles of dataflow management.
We will highlight ongoing and new efforts in the community to provide greater flexibility with deployment and configuration management of flows. Versioned flows provide greater operational flexibility and serve as a powerful foundation to orchestrate the collection and transmission from the point of data's inception through to its transmission to consumers and processing systems.
This presentation was created as an introduction to the Apache NiFi project; to be followed by “Lab 0” of the “Realtime Event Processing in Hadoop with NiFi, Kafka and Storm” tutorial hosted here: http://hortonworks.com/hadoop-tutorial/realtime-event-processing-nifi-kafka-storm/#section_1
Using Apache® NiFi to Empower Self-Organising TeamsSebastian Carroll
Even though many organisations are moving to Agile methods, data transport architectures continue to be change-resistant. Given that data is now key to many teams and organisation can we really practice agility if we can't control the data we rely on? Apache NiFi can help alleviate this by giving the control to the teams and placing the decisions into the hands of those most capable of making them.
Introduction: This workshop will provide a hands on introduction to simple event data processing and data flow processing using a Sandbox on students’ personal machines.
Format: A short introductory lecture to Apache NiFi and computing used in the lab followed by a demo, lab exercises and a Q&A session. The lecture will be followed by lab time to work through the lab exercises and ask questions.
Objective: To provide a quick and short hands-on introduction to Apache NiFi. In the lab, you will install and use Apache NiFi to collect, conduct and curate data-in-motion and data-at-rest with NiFi. You will learn how to connect and consume streaming sensor data, filter and transform the data and persist to multiple data sources.
Pre-requisites: Registrants must bring a laptop that has the latest VirtualBox installed and an image for Hortonworks DataFlow (HDF) Sandbox will be provided.

As Apache Solr becomes more powerful and easier to use, the accessibility of high quality data becomes key to unlocking the full potential of Solr’s search and analytic capabilities. Traditional approaches to acquiring data frequently involve a combination of homegrown tools and scripts, often requiring significant development efforts and becoming hard to change, hard to monitor, and hard to maintain. This talk will discuss how Apache NiFi addresses the above challenges and can be used to build production-grade data pipelines for Solr. We will start by giving an introduction to the core features of NiFi, such as visual command & control, dynamic prioritization, back-pressure, and provenance. We will then look at NiFi’s processors for integrating with Solr, covering topics such as ingesting and extracting data, interacting with secure Solr instances, and performance tuning. We will conclude by building a live dataflow from scratch, demonstrating how to prepare data and ingest to Solr.
