The document describes a system for combining real-time and batch processing using Apache Storm and Hadoop. Streaming data is captured and processed in real-time using Storm topologies, while periodic snapshots of the real-time data are taken and processed using Hadoop for long-term aggregation and analysis. The system aims to provide a single solution for both real-time and historical processing without the limitations of using either Storm or Hadoop alone.
Detailed design for a robust counter as well as design for a completely on-line multi-armed bandit implementation that uses the new Bayesian Bandit algorithm.
Storm – Streaming Data Analytics at Scale - StampedeCon 2014StampedeCon
At StampedeCon 2014, Scott Shaw (Hortonworks) and Kit Menke (Enteprise Holdings) presented "Storm – Streaming Data Analytics at Scale"
Storm’s primary purpose is to provide real-time analytics against fast moving data before its stored. The use cases range from fraud detection, machine learning, to ETL.
Storm has been clocked at over 1 million tuples processed per second per node. It’s fast, scalable, and language agnostic. This session provides an architecture overview as well as a real-world discussion of its use and implementation at Enterprise Holdings.
What are algorithms? How can I build a machine learning model? In machine learning, training large models on a massive amount of data usually improves results. Our customers report, however, that training such models and deploying them is either operationally prohibitive or outright impossible for them. At Amazon, we created a collection of machine learning algorithms that scale to any amount of data, including k-means clustering for data segmentation, factorisation machines for recommendations, and time-series forecasting. This talk will discuss those algorithms, understand where and how they can be used, and our design choices.

Real time big data analytics with Storm by Ron Bodkin of Think Big AnalyticsData Con LA
This talk provides an overview of the open source Storm system for processing Big Data in realtime. The talk starts with an overview of the technology, including key components: Nimbus, Zookeeper, Topology, Tuple, Trident. It looks at integration with Hadoop through YARN and recent improvements. The presentation then dives into the complex Big Data architecture in which Storm can be integrated . The result is a compelling stack of technologies including integrated Hadoop clusters, MPP, and NoSQL databases.
After this, we look at example use cases for Storm: real-time advertising statistics, updating a Machine Learned model for content popularity predictions, and financial compliance monitoring.
This talk is one that I gave to the HPTS workshop in Asilomar in 2009. It describes the ideas behind micro-sharding and outlines how Katta can manage micro-shards.
Some builds and spacing are off because this was exported as power point from Keynote.
Bobby Evans and Tom Graves, the engineering leads for Spark and Storm development at Yahoo will talk about how these technologies are used on Yahoo's grids and reasons why to use one or the other.
Bobby Evans is the low latency data processing architect at Yahoo. He is a PMC member on many Apache projects including Storm, Hadoop, Spark, and Tez. His team is responsible for delivering Storm as a service to all of Yahoo and maintaining Spark on Yarn for Yahoo (Although Tom really does most of that work).

Streaming data presents new challenges for statistics and machine learning on extremely large data sets. Tools such as Apache Storm, a stream processing framework, can power range of data analytics but lack advanced statistical capabilities. These slides are from the Apache.con talk, which discussed developing streaming algorithms with the flexibility of both Storm and R, a statistical programming language.
At the talk I dicsussed issues of why and how to use Storm and R to develop streaming algorithms; in particular I focused on:
• Streaming algorithms
• Online machine learning algorithms
• Use cases showing how to process hundreds of millions of events a day in (near) real time
See: https://apacheconna2015.sched.org/event/09f5a1cc372860b008bce09e15a034c4#.VUf7wxOUd5o
Some notes about spark streming positioning give the current players: Beam, Flink, Storm et al. Helpful if you have to choose an Streaming engine for your project.
Building large-scale analytics platform with Storm, Kafka and Cassandra - NYC...Alexey Kharlamov
At Integral, we process heavy volumes of click-stream traffic. 50K QPS of ad impressions at peak and close to 200K QPS of all browser calls. We build analytics on this streams of data. There are two applications which require quite significant computational effort: 'sessionization' and fraud detection.
Sessionization implies linking a series of requests from same browser into single record. There can be 5 or more total requests spread over 15-30 minutes which we need to link to each other.
Fraud detection is a process looking at various signals in browser requests and at substantial historical evidence data classifying ad impression either as legitimate or as fraudulent.
We've been doing both (as well as all other analytics) in batch mode once an hour at best. Both processes, and, in particular, fraud detection, are time sensitive and much more meaningful if done in near-real-time.
This talk would be about our experience migrating a once-per-day offline batch processing of impression data using hadoop to in-memory stream processing using Kafka, Storm and Cassandra. We will touch upon our choices and our reasoning for selecting the products used for this solution.
Hadoop is no longer the only or always preferred option in Big Data space. In-memory stream processing may be more effective for time series data preparation and aggregation. Ability to scale at a significantly lower cost means more customers, better accuracy and better business practices: since only in-stream processing allows for low-latency data and insight delivery it opens entirely new opportunities. However, transitioning of non-trivial data pipelines raises a number of questions hidden previously within the offline nature of batch processing. How will you join several data feeds? How will you implement failure recovery? In addition to handling terabytes of data per day our streaming system has to be guided by the following considerations:
• Recovery time
• Time relativity and continuity
• Geographical distribution of data sources
• Limit on data loss
• Maintainability
The system produces complex cross-correlational analysis of several data feeds and aggregation for client analytics with input feed frequency of up to 100K msg/sec.
This presentation will benefit anyone interested in learning an alternate approach for big data analytics, especially the process of joining multiple streams in memory using Cassandra. Presentation will also highlight certain optimization patterns used those can be useful in similar situations.
Within this tutorial we present the results of recent research about the cloud enablement of data streaming systems. We illustrate, based on both industrial as well as academic prototypes, new emerging uses cases and research trends. Specifically, we focus on novel approaches for (1) fault tolerance and (2) scalability in large scale distributed streaming systems. In general, new fault tolerance mechanisms strive to be more robust and at the same time introduce less overhead. Novel load balancing approaches focus on elastic scaling over hundreds of instances based on the data and query workload. Finally, we present open challenges for the next generation of cloud-based data stream processing engines.

C* Summit 2013: Real-Time Big Data with Storm, Cassandra, and In-Memory Compu...DataStax Academy
This session will describe how to resolve the processing limitations by placing the streaming and data store interfaces in-memory as well, through an in-memory computing platform, and also how to resolve the complexity challenge by implementing a DevOps approach that abstracts all the underlying infrastructure and provides single-click management of all the application tiers and services, on any environment (private/public cloud, bare metal…). And the best news is that all this optimization can be implemented seamlessly, with no code change to your apps.
Large-Scale Stream Processing in the Hadoop EcosystemGyula Fóra
Distributed stream processing is one of the hot topics in big data analytics today. An increasing number of applications are shifting from traditional static data sources to processing the incoming data in real-time. Performing large scale stream processing or analysis requires specialized tools and techniques which have become publicly available in the last couple of years.
This talk will give a deep, technical overview of the top-level Apache stream processing landscape. We compare several frameworks including Spark, Storm, Samza and Flink. Our goal is to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the individual systems in a project-neutral manner to help selecting the best tools for the specific applications. We will touch on the topics of API expressivity, runtime architecture, performance, fault-tolerance and strong use-cases for the individual frameworks.
ParaForming - Patterns and Refactoring for Parallel Programmingkhstandrews
Despite Moore's "law", uniprocessor clock speeds have now stalled. Rather than single processors running at ever higher clock speeds, it is
common to find dual-, quad- or even hexa-core processors, even in consumer laptops and desktops.
Future hardware will not be slightly parallel, however, as in today's multicore systems, but will be
massively parallel, with manycore and perhaps even megacore systems
becoming mainstream.
This means that programmers need to start thinking parallel. To achieve this they must move away
from traditional programming models where parallelism is a
bolted-on afterthought. Rather, programmers must use languages where parallelism is deeply embedded into the programming model
from the outset.
By providing a high level model of computation, without explicit ordering of computations,
declarative languages in general, and functional languages in particular, offer many advantages for parallel
programming.
One of the most fundamental advantages of the functional paradigm is purity.
In a purely functional language, as exemplified by Haskell, there are simply no side effects: it is therefore impossible for parallel computations to conflict with each
other in ways that are not well understood.
ParaForming aims to radically improve the process
of parallelising purely functional programs through a comprehensive set of high-level parallel refactoring patterns for Parallel Haskell,
supported by advanced refactoring tools.
By matching parallel design patterns with appropriate algorithmic skeletons
using advanced software refactoring techniques and novel cost information, we will bridge the gap between fully automatic
and fully explicit approaches to parallelisation, helping programmers "think parallel" in a systematic,
guided way. This talk introduces the ParaForming approach, gives some examples and shows how
effective parallel programs can be developed using advanced refactoring technology.
Apache kylin 2.0: from classic olap to real-time data warehouseYang Li
Apache Kylin, which started as a big data OLAP engine, is reaching its v2.0. Yang Li explains how, armed with snowflake schema support, a full SQL interface, spark cubing, and the ability to consume real-time streaming data, Apache Kylin is closing the gap to becoming a real-time data warehouse.
What are some of the performance implications of using lambdas and what strategies can be used to address these. When might be want an alternative to using a lambda and how can we design our APIs to be flexible in this regard. What are the principles of writing low latency code in Java? How do we tune and optimize our code for low latency? When don’t we optimize our code? Where does the JVM help and where does it get in our way? How does this apply to lambdas? How can we design our APIs to use lambdas and minimize garbage?
Talk given by Ted Dunning at the London Hadoop users' group meeting in May of 2012 about how to do real-time and batch computation on the same stream of information.
How Data-Driven Approaches are Changing Your Data Management Strategies
Introducing data-driven strategies into your business model alters the way your organization manages and provides information to your customers, partners and employees. Gone are the days of “waterfall” implementation strategies from relational data to applications within a data center. Now, data-driven business models require agile implementation of applications based on information from all across an organization–on-premises, cloud, and mobile–and includes information from outside corporate walls from partners, third-party vendors, and customers. Data management strategies need to be ready to meet these challenges or your new and disruptive business models will fail at the most critical time: when your customers want to access it.

How to Leverage the Cloud for Business Solutions | Strata Data Conference Lon...MapR Technologies
IT budgets are shrinking, and the move to next-generation technologies is upon us. The cloud is an option for nearly every company, but just because it is an option doesn’t mean it is always the right solution for every problem.
Most cloud providers would prefer that every customer be tightly coupled with their proprietary services and APIs to create lock-in with that cloud provider. The savvy customer will leverage the cloud as infrastructure and stay loosely bound to a cloud provider. This creates an opportunity for the customer to execute a multicloud strategy or even a hybrid on-premises and cloud solution.
Jim Scott explores different use cases that may be best run in the cloud versus on-premises, points out opportunities to optimize cost and operational benefits, and explains how to get the data moved between locations. Along the way, Jim discusses security, backups, event streaming, databases, replication, and snapshots across a variety of use cases that run most businesses today.
Is your organization at the analytics crossroads? Have you made strides collecting and sharing massive amounts of data from electronic health records, insurance claims, and health information exchanges but found these efforts made little impact on efficiency, patient outcomes, or costs?
Changes in how business is done combined with multiple technology drivers make geo-distributed data increasingly important for enterprises. These changes are causing serious disruption across a wide range of industries, including healthcare, manufacturing, automotive, telecommunications, and entertainment. Technical challenges arise with these disruptions, but the good news is there are now innovative solutions to address these problems. http://info.mapr.com/WB_Geo-distributed-Big-Data-and-Analytics_Global_DG_17.05.16_RegistrationPage.html
MapR announced a few new releases in 2017, and we want to go over those exciting new products and features that are available now. We’d like to invite our customers and partners to this webinar in which members of the MapR product team will share details about the latest updates.
3 Benefits of Multi-Temperature Data Management for Data AnalyticsMapR Technologies
SAP® HANA and SAP® IQ are popular platforms for various analytical and transactional use cases. If you’re an SAP customer, you’ve experienced the benefits of deploying these solutions. However, as data volumes grow, you’re likely asking yourself: How do I scale storage to support these applications? How can I have one platform for various applications and use cases?
Cisco & MapR bring 3 Superpowers to SAP HANA DeploymentsMapR Technologies
SAP HANA is an increasingly popular platform for various analytical and transactional use cases with its in-memory architecture. If you’re an SAP customer you’ve experienced the benefits.
However, the underlying storage for SAP HANA is painfully expensive. This slows down your ability to grow your SAP HANA footprint and serve up more applications.
You’re not the only one still loading your data into data warehouses and building marts or cubes out of it. But today’s data requires a much more accessible environment that delivers real-time results. Prepare for this transformation because your data platform and storage choices are about to undergo a re-platforming that happens once in 30 years.
With the MapR Converged Data Platform (CDP) and Cisco Unified Compute System (UCS), you can optimize today’s infrastructure and grow to take advantage of what’s next. Uncover the range of possibilities from re-platforming by intimately understanding your options for density, performance, functionality and more.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).
