The document discusses issues with data storage and sharing between Hadoop projects. It proposes the Kite SDK as a solution to standardize table formats and schemas to improve compatibility. Kite defines a common API for table access and tools to allow data to be versioned and evolved over time. It aims to improve on existing approaches by focusing on table-level rather than file-level storage and integration with systems like Hive and Impala.
The Kite SDK is an open source set of libraries, tools, examples, and documentation focused on helping developers build systems on top of the Apache Hadoop ecosystem. Learn (via examples) how Kite makes it easier to work with data in HDFS and Apache HBase as records and datasets, just as you would with a relational database.
Data ingest is a deceptively hard problem. In the world of big data processing, it becomes exponentially more difficult. It's not sufficient to simply land data on a system, that data must be ready for processing and analysis. The Kite SDK is a data API designed for solving the issues related to data infest and preparation. In this talk you'll see how Kite can be used for everything from simple tasks to production ready data pipelines in minutes.
Apache Solr on Hadoop is enabling organizations to collect, process and search larger, more varied data. Apache Spark is is making a large impact across the industry, changing the way we think about batch processing and replacing MapReduce in many cases. But how can production users easily migrate ingestion of HDFS data into Solr from MapReduce to Spark? How can they update and delete existing documents in Solr at scale? And how can they easily build flexible data ingestion pipelines? Cloudera Search Software Engineer Wolfgang Hoschek will present an architecture and solution to this problem. How was Apache Solr, Spark, Crunch, and Morphlines integrated to allow for scalable and flexible ingestion of HDFS data into Solr? What are the solved problems and what's still to come? Join us for an exciting discussion on this new technology.

Hive is a data warehousing infrastructure based on Hadoop. Hadoop provides massive scale out and fault tolerance capabilities for data storage and processing (using the map-reduce programming paradigm) on commodity hardware.
Hive is designed to enable easy data summarization, ad-hoc querying and analysis of large volumes of data. It provides a simple query language called Hive QL, which is based on SQL and which enables users familiar with SQL to do ad-hoc querying, summarization and data analysis easily. At the same time, Hive QL also allows traditional map/reduce programmers to be able to plug in their custom mappers and reducers to do more sophisticated analysis that may not be supported by the built-in capabilities of the language.

Introduction to Machine Learning on Apache Spark MLlib by Juliet Hougland, Se...Cloudera, Inc.
Spark MLlib is a library for performing machine learning and associated tasks on massive datasets. With MLlib, fitting a machine-learning model to a billion observations can take only a few lines of code, and leverage hundreds of machines. This talk will demonstrate how to use Spark MLlib to fit an ML model that can predict which customers of a telecommunications company are likely to stop using their service. It will cover the use of Spark's DataFrames API for fast data manipulation, as well as ML Pipelines for making the model development and refinement process easier.
Apache Hive has different models of authorization that you can use based on the use case you have. Also discusses how to setup and configure hive to use appropriate authorization models.
Dancing elephants - efficiently working with object stores from Apache Spark ...DataWorks Summit
As Hadoop applications move into cloud deployments, object stores become more and more the source and destination of data. But object stores are not filesystems: sometimes they are slower; security is different,
What are the secret settings to get maximum performance from queries against data living in cloud object stores? That's at the filesystem client, the file format and the query engine layers? It's even how you lay out the files —the directory structure and the names you give them.
We know these things, from our work in all these layers, from the benchmarking we've done —and the support calls we get when people have problems. And now: we'll show you.
This talk will start from the ground up "why isn't an object store a filesystem?" issue, showing how that breaks fundamental assumptions in code, and so causes performance issues which you don't get when working with HDFS. We'll look at the ways to get Apache Hive and Spark to work better, looking at optimizations which have been done to enable this —and what work is ongoing. Finally, we'll consider what your own code needs to do in order to adapt to cloud execution.
A brave new world in mutable big data relational storage (Strata NYC 2017)Todd Lipcon
The ever-increasing interest in running fast analytic scans on constantly updating data is stretching the capabilities of HDFS and NoSQL storage. Users want the fast online updates and serving of real-time data that NoSQL offers, as well as the fast scans, analytics, and processing of HDFS. Additionally, users are demanding that big data storage systems integrate natively with their existing BI and analytic technology investments, which typically use SQL as the standard query language of choice. This demand has led big data back to a familiar friend: relationally structured data storage systems.
Todd Lipcon explores the advantages of relational storage and reviews new developments, including Google Cloud Spanner and Apache Kudu, which provide a scalable relational solution for users who have too much data for a legacy high-performance analytic system. Todd explains how to address use cases that fall between HDFS and NoSQL with technologies like Apache Kudu or Google Cloud Spanner and how the combination of relational data models, SQL query support, and native API-based access enables the next generation of big data applications. Along the way, he also covers suggested architectures, the performance characteristics of Kudu and Spanner, and the deployment flexibility each option provides.

3 Things to Learn About:
* How Sparklyr supports a complete backend for dplyr, a popular tool for working with data frame objects both in memory and out of memory
* How Sparklyr llows data scientists to use dplyr to translate R code into Spark SQL
* How Sparklyr supports MLlib so data scientists can run classifiers, regressions, and many other machine learning algorithms in Spark
Machine Learning and Data Science are the hot technologies everyone is chasing this year, but sharing Machine Learning solutions is more complicated than simple source control. How do you share the process that allowed you to arrive at your solution? How do you effectively communicate between Data Scientists and Developers? How do I make it pretty so that I can present the work to non-technical stakeholders?
This talk answers these questions using Azure Notebooks. We will walk through a real example of a Jupyter Notebook, its features and I how I created it. The topics covered include:
• What are Azure Notebooks? How do they fit into the Azure Ecosystem?
• What is Jupyter? What are it's strengths and weaknesses?
• Mixing code snippets and execution results
• Data Visualization for presentation and analysis
• Markdown for exposition and formatting
• Sharing and Source Control
You'll leave with an understanding of Jupyter and Azure Notebooks and understand how to apply Azure Notebooks to real-world problems.

Simplifying AI integration on Apache SparkDatabricks
Spark is an ETL and Data Processing engine especially suited for big data. Most of the time an organization has different teams working on different languages, frameworks and libraries, which needs to be integrated in the ETL Pipelines or for general data processing. For example, a Spark ETL job may be written in Scala by data engineering team, but there is a need to integrate a machine learning solution written in python/R developed by Data Science team. These kinds of solutions are not very straightforward to integrate with spark engine, and it required great amount of collaboration between different teams, hence increasing overall project time and cost. Furthermore, these solutions will keep on changing/upgrading with time using latest versions of the technologies and with improved design and implementation, especially in Machine Learning domain where ML models/algorithms keep on improving with new data and new approaches. And so there is significant downtime involved in integrating the these upgraded version.

• CI/CD Pipelines: What are they?
• Database Deployments: State based vs Migration based
• Snowflake features for CI/CD
• Azure DevOps: Build and Release Pipelines

Polyglot Persistence - Two Great Tastes That Taste Great TogetherJohn Wood
The days of the relational database being a one-stop-shop for all of your persistence needs are over. Although NoSQL databases address some issues that can’t be addressed by relational databases, the opposite is true as well. The relational database offers an unparalleled feature set and rock solid stability. One cannot underestimate the importance of using the right tool for the job, and for some jobs, one tool is not enough. This talk focuses on the strength and weaknesses of both relational and NoSQL databases, the benefits and challenges of polyglot persistence, and examples of polyglot persistence in the wild.

In this video from the Stanford HPC Conference, Liran Zvibel from Weka.IO presents: Making Machine Learning Compute Bound Again.
"GPUs are getting faster on a yearly cycle. Networking was able to catch up and support linear scaling of models that fit in memory. Traditional storage has not caught up to the condensed performance needed by GPU-filled servers. The amount of concurrent clients and the sheer amount of data required to effectively scale modern deep learning models keeps growing.
We are going to present WekaIO, the lowest latency, highest throughput file system solution that scales to 100s of PB in a single namespace supporting the most challenging deep learning projects that run today. We will present real life benchmarks comparing WekaIO performance to a local SSD file system, showing that we are the only coherent shared storage that is even faster than the current caching solutons, while allowing customers to linearly scale performance by adding more GPU servers. Also, we will view the complete ML project lifecycle, from collecting data, cleaning, tagging, exploring, training, validating, and finally archiving, and how customers can use cloud bursting to leverage public cloud infrastructure for improved economics."

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”
