Santhosh B Gowda presents on Cloudbreak, a tool for provisioning Hadoop clusters on cloud infrastructure. Cloudbreak allows for simplified cluster provisioning through prescriptive setups and automation. It supports declarative workload provisioning across multiple cloud providers with flexible topologies and security configuration options. Cloudbreak also enables features like auto-scaling, recipes to customize clusters, and shared services data lakes to provide common metadata and access management across ephemeral clusters. Demonstrations of launching HDP and HDF clusters from the Cloudbreak UI and CLI are also provided.
As containerization continues to gain momentum and become a de facto standard for application deployment, challenges around containerization of big data workloads are coming to light. Great strides have been made within the open source communities towards running big data workloads in containers, but much is left to be done.
Apache Hadoop YARN is the modern distributed operating system for big data applications. It has morphed the Hadoop compute layer into a common resource-management platform that can host a wide variety of applications. At its core, YARN has a very powerful scheduler which enforces global cluster level invariants and helps sites manage user and operator expectations of elastic sharing, resource usage limits, SLAs, and more. YARN recently increased its support for Docker containerization and added a YARN service framework supporting long-running services.
In this session we will explore the emerging patterns and challenges related to containers and big data workloads, including running applications such as Apache Spark, Apache HBase, and Kubernetes in containers on YARN.

Running Enterprise Workloads with an Open Source Hybrid Cloud Data ArchitectureDataWorks Summit
Cloud is turbocharging the Enterprise IT landscape with agility and flexibility. And now, discussions of cloud architecture dominate Enterprise IT. Cloud is enabling many ephemeral on-demand use cases which is a game-changing opportunity for analytic workloads. But all of this comes with the challenges of running enterprise workloads in the cloud securely and with ease.
With the convergence of cloud, IoT, and big data technologies, enterprises increasingly have their data spread across multiple data lakes on-prem and in cloud data lake stores in many geographies and across multiple public cloud vendor platforms, for example, due to regulatory and compliance mandates that limit cross-border data transfer. With the proliferation of data types and sources in this complex landscape, the process of discovery, provisioning, and running relevant workloads on this data to gather insights has become more complex. Additionally, gaining global visibility into the business context, usage, and trustworthiness of data requires a centralized view of all data and metadata, security controls, data access, and monitoring.
All of these challenges create a significant chasm between initial data capture and subsequent data insights generation to drive value creation. Therefore, enterprises now require a “global insight fabric” that can find a happy medium between adequate rules and policies of data governance while providing a trusted environment for users to collaborate and share data responsibly in order to create value.
In this talk, we will outline how Hortonworks DataPlane Service(DPS) can help customers build a global insight fabric that can span storing and analyzing data within data centers to implementing an open source hybrid architecture that takes advantage of cloud's elasticity and new use cases. We will get a personal view of the challenges faced in safely moving data from on-premises data centers into multiple public clouds, safeguarding it through replication, and then applying consistent security and governance policies across diverse environments to deliver trusted data and insights to the business. We will highlight how DataPlane Service can help enterprises with this hybrid architectural journey, and how open source architectures are enabling this transformation across enterprises.

HDFS has several strengths: horizontally scale its IO bandwidth and scale its storage to petabytes of storage. Further, it provides very low latency metadata operations and scales to over 60K concurrent clients. Hadoop 3.0 recently added Erasure Coding. One of HDFS’s limitations is scaling a number of files and blocks in the system. We describe a radical change to Hadoop’s storage infrastructure with the upcoming Ozone technology. It allows Hadoop to scale to tens of billions of files and blocks and, in the future, to every larger number of smaller objects. Ozone fundamentally separates the namespace layer and the block layer allowing new namespace layers to be added in the future. Further, the use of RAFT protocol has allowed the storage layer to be self-consistent. We show how this technology helps a Hadoop user and also what it means for evolving HDFS in the future. We will also cover the technical details of Ozone.

In this talk, we will give an overview of the deep learning space starting with a brief history. We will distinguish between deep learning hype vs practical real-world applications, cover how deep learning differs from other machine learning algorithms, go over sample neural net architectures, and provide a step-by-step guide on how to get started.
Specifically, we will cover what type of training data is required and how to prepare it with Apache Spark, followed by how to choose a correct neural net architecture, train, and deploy a deep learning model with TensorFlow on Apache Hadoop 3.1.
Finally, we will wrap-up with deep learning challenges and shortcomings, and offer short- and long-term recommendations to successfully train and deploy deep learning models within your organization to maximize return on investment.

Curing the Kafka Blindness – Streams Messaging ManagerDataWorks Summit
Companies who use Kafka today struggle with monitoring and managing Kafka clusters. Kafka is a key backbone of IoT streaming analytics applications. The challenge is understanding what is going on overall in the Kafka cluster including performance, issues and message flows. No open source tool caters to the needs of different users that work with Kafka: DevOps/developers, platform team, and security/governance teams. See how the new Hortonworks Streams Messaging Manager enables users to visualize their entire Kafka environment end-to-end and simplifies Kafka operations.
In this session learn how SMM visualizes the intricate details of how Apache Kafka functions in real time while simultaneously surfacing every nuance of tuning, optimizing, and measuring input and output. SMM will assist users to quickly understand and operate Kafka while providing the much-needed transparency that sophisticated and experienced users need to avoid all the pitfalls of running a Kafka cluster.

How is it that one system can query terabytes of data, yet still provide interactive query support? This talk will discuss two of the underlying technologies that allow Apache Hive to support fast query response, both on-premise in HDFS and in cloud object stores such as S3 and WASB.
LLAP was introduced in Hive 2.6. It provides standing processes that securely cache Hive’s columnar data and can do query processing without ever needing to start tasks in Hadoop. We will cover LLAP’s architecture, intended uses cases, and performance numbers for both on-premise and in the cloud.
The second technology is the integration of Hive with Apache Druid. Druid excels at low-latency, interactive queries over streaming data. Its method of storing data makes it very well suited for OLAP style queries. We will cover how Hive can be integrated with Druid to support real-time streaming of data from Kafka and OLAP queries.
10 Lessons Learned from Meeting with 150 Banks Across the GlobeDataWorks Summit
Who's looking at you? Your ocean of data--is it secure? Leading banks and capital markets firms process huge amounts of data from traditional and non-traditional sources. Regulatory risk is present in all of these businesses and there is always internal risk. A few rogue individuals can cause extraordinary losses if their malicious activities go unnoticed. And compliance teams need to analyze both data-in-motion and data-at-rest to detect suspicious activity in real-time.
Join Diego Baez, GM Financial Services for Hortonworks, as he discusses the top lessons learned over the last two years, from his work with over 150 Financial Services Companies across the globe, including Global Mega Banks, Regional institutions, Hedge Funds, Fintech, Regulators and Central banks. Hear as he covers the key lessons learned from these clients - what is working, what is not - and which institutions are harnessing the power of BigData and Analytics to transform their business.
Apache Hive is a rapidly evolving project which continues to enjoy great adoption in the big data ecosystem. As Hive continues to grow its support for analytics, reporting, and interactive query, the community is hard at work in improving it along with many different dimensions and use cases. This talk will provide an overview of the latest and greatest features and optimizations which have landed in the project over the last year. Materialized views, the extension of ACID semantics to non-ORC data, and workload management are some noteworthy new features.
We will discuss optimizations which provide major performance gains, including significantly improved performance for ACID tables. The talk will also provide a glimpse of what is expected to come in the near future.
Speaker: Alan Gates, Co-Founder, Hortonworks
Sharing metadata across the data lake and streamsDataWorks Summit
Traditionally systems have stored and managed their own metadata, just as they traditionally stored and managed their own data. A revolutionary feature of big data tools such as Apache Hadoop and Apache Kafka is the ability to store all data together, where users can bring the tools of their choice to process it.
Apache Hive's metastore can be used to share the metadata in the same way. It is already used by many SQL and SQL-like systems beyond Hive (e.g. Apache Spark, Presto, Apache Impala, and via HCatalog, Apache Pig). As data processing changes from only data in the cluster to include data in streams, the metastore needs to expand and grow to meet these use cases as well. There is work going on in the Hive community to separate out the metastore, so it can continue to serve Hive but also be used by a more diverse set of tools. This talk will discuss that work, with particular focus on adding support for storing schemas for Kafka messages.

Delivering a Flexible IT Infrastructure for Analytics on IBM Power SystemsHortonworks
Customers are preparing themselves to analyze and manage an increasing quantity of structured and unstructured data. Business leaders introduce new analytical workloads faster than what IT departments can handle. Legacy IT infrastructure needs to evolve to deliver operational improvements and cost containment, while increasing flexibility to meet future requirements. By providing HDP on IBM Power Systems, Hortonworks and IBM are giving customers have more choice in selecting the appropriate architectural platform that is right for them. In this webinar, we’ll discuss some of the challenges with deploying big data platforms, and how choosing solutions built with HDP on IBM Power Systems can offer tangible benefits and flexibility to accommodate changing needs.
Apache Hive is a rapidly evolving project, many people are loved by the big data ecosystem. Hive continues to expand support for analytics, reporting, and bilateral queries, and the community is striving to improve support along with many other aspects and use cases. In this lecture, we introduce the latest and greatest features and optimization that appeared in this project last year. This includes benchmarks covering LLAP, Apache Druid's materialized views and integration, workload management, ACID improvements, using Hive in the cloud, and performance improvements. I will also tell you a little about what you can expect in the future.
Lessons learned running a container cloud on YARNDataWorks Summit
Apache Hadoop YARN is the resource and application manager for Apache Hadoop. In the past, YARN only supported launching containers as processes. However, as containerization has become extremely popular, more and more users wanted support for launching Docker containers. With recent changes, YARN now supports running Docker containers alongside process containers. Coupled with the newly added support for long-running services on YARN, this allows a host of new possibilities.
In this talk, we'll present how to run a container cloud on YARN. Leveraging the support in YARN for Docker and long-running services, we can allow users to easily spin up sets of Docker containers for their applications. These containers can be self contained or wired up to form more complex applications. We will go over some of the lessons we learned as part of our experiences handling issues such as resource management, debugging application failures, running Docker, service discovery, etc.

Using Spark Streaming and NiFi for the Next Generation of ETL in the EnterpriseDataWorks Summit
In recent years, big data has moved from batch processing to stream-based processing since no one wants to wait hours or days to gain insights. Dozens of stream processing frameworks exist today and the same trend that occurred in the batch-based big data processing realm has taken place in the streaming world so that nearly every streaming framework now supports higher level relational operations.
On paper, combining Apache NiFi, Kafka, and Spark Streaming provides a compelling architecture option for building your next generation ETL data pipeline in near real time. What does this look like in an enterprise production environment to deploy and operationalized?
The newer Spark Structured Streaming provides fast, scalable, fault-tolerant, end-to-end exactly-once stream processing with elegant code samples, but is that the whole story?
We discuss the drivers and expected benefits of changing the existing event processing systems. In presenting the integrated solution, we will explore the key components of using NiFi, Kafka, and Spark, then share the good, the bad, and the ugly when trying to adopt these technologies into the enterprise. This session is targeted toward architects and other senior IT staff looking to continue their adoption of open source technology and modernize ingest/ETL processing. Attendees will take away lessons learned and experience in deploying these technologies to make their journey easier.

Apache Hadoop YARN is the modern distributed operating system for big data applications. It morphed the Hadoop compute layer to be a common resource management platform that can host a wide variety of applications. Many organizations 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 start with the current status of Apache Hadoop YARN—how it is used today in deployments large and small. We'll then move on to the exciting present and future of YARN—features that are further strengthening YARN as the first class resource management platform for data centers running enterprise Hadoop.
We’ll discuss the current status as well as the future promise of features and initiatives like: powerful container placement, global scheduling, support for machine learning and deep learning workloads through GPU and FPGA support, extreme scale with YARN federation, containerized apps on YARN, support for long-running services (alongside applications) natively without any changes, seamless application upgrades, 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.
Deep learning on yarn running distributed tensorflow etc on hadoop cluster v3DataWorks Summit
Deep learning is useful for enterprises tasks in the field of speech recognition, image classification, AI chatbots, and machine translation, just to name a few.
In order to train deep learning/machine learning models, applications such as TensorFlow, MXNet, Caffe, and XGBoost can be leveraged. And sometimes these applications will be used together to solve different problems.
To make distributed deep learning/machine learning applications easily launched, managed, and monitored, we introduced, in Apache Hadoop 3.x, YARN native services along with other improvements such as first-class GPU support, container-DNS support, scheduling improvements, etc. These improvements make distributed deep learning/machine learning applications run on YARN as simple as running it locally, which can let machine learning engineers focus on algorithms instead of worrying about underlying infrastructure. Also, YARN can better manage a shared cluster which runs deep learning/machine learning and other services and ETL jobs with these improvements.
In this session, we will take a closer look at these improvements and show how to run these applications on YARN with demos. Audiences can start trying running these applications on YARN after this talk.

Hadoop operations started on-prem primarily driven by Apache Ambari. However, due to the agility and flexibility of the cloud, it has driven many Hadoop cluster operations to the cloud and to hybrid environments. Cloud is enabling many ephemeral on-demand use cases which is a game-changing opportunity for analytic workloads. But all of this comes with the challenges of running enterprise workloads in the cloud securely and with ease.
Apache Ambari is used by thousands of Hadoop Operators to manage the deployment, lifecycle, and automation of DevOps for Hadoop ecosystem projects. Starting out, Apache Ambari installed a handful of Apache Hadoop ecosystem projects, on a few operating systems, and helped with the most basic Hadoop operational tasks. Today, the product manages over 20 different services, runs on multiple major operating systems and versions, and automates many of the most challenging Hadoop operational tasks in the most secure customer environments.
In this session, we will also take you through Cloudbreak as a solution to simplify provisioning and managing enterprise workloads while providing an open and common experience for deploying workloads across clouds. We will discuss the challenges (and opportunities) to run enterprise workloads in the cloud and will go through a live demo of how the latest from Cloudbreak enables enterprises to easily and securely run Apache Hadoop. This includes deep-dive discussion on Ambari Blueprints, recipes, custom images, and enabling Kerberos -- which are all key capabilities for Enterprise deployments.
As part of this talk, will walk you through what we've learned, the challenges we've overcome, and how the Apache Ambari and Cloudbreak community has changed the product to handle them. The future is fast approaching, and with it comes new on-premise and cloud deployment architectures. See how Apache Ambari and Cloudbreak are being re-imagined to handle these new challenges.

The Department of Home Affairs’ initial big data use-cases were standard Hadoop fare: legacy system archival, log data retention and a scalable BLOB store. Along the way we discovered that a platform as open as HDP offered opportunities beyond those exposed by everyone’s favourite asparagus diagram. Here you’ll see how we’ve augmented our Hadoop stack with Solr for text searching, offloading significant work from our Teradata Warehouse in the process; and how we are currently implementing JanusGraph, improving the quality of models developed by our Data Scientists and providing richer data to our Intelligence Analysts – all backed by HDP!

The First Mile – Edge and IoT Data Collection with Apache NiFi and MiNiFiDataWorks Summit
Apache NiFi 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.
Abstract: 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 a 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.
Takeaways: Attendees will learn about opportunities to bring their data flow and capture closer to the "edge" -- sources of data like IoT devices, vehicles, machinery, etc. They will understand the possibilities to prioritize, filter, secure, and manipulate this data earlier in the data lifecycle to enhance their data visibility and performance.

Apache Hadoop YARN is the latest distributed operating system for HDSF for big data applications and storage. YARN has transformed the Hadoop Compute Layer into a general resource management platform capable of hosting a wide variety of applications.
This lecture begins with the current state how Apache Hadoop YARN is currently used in large scale deployment. The next topic will cover about strengthening YARN 's current and future - like YARN' s excitement - as a top-notch resource management platform for data centers running enterprise Hadoop. Discuss the current state and future of the following functions and initiatives: support of machine learning through strong container placement, global scheduling, GPU and FPGA support and deep learning workload, large scale of YARN federation, on YARN Containerized applications, natural support that does not change to long-running services (along with applications), seamless application upgrades, powerful scheduling functions, operational improvements and better queue management.
The second part of the lecture focuses on the latest enhancement of HDFS. HDFS has several advantages: horizontal scale of IO bandwidth, storage scaled to petabyte storage. In addition, it provides extremely low latency metadata operations and coordinates for over 60,000 concurrent clients. Hadoop 3.0 recently introduced Erasure Coding. One limitation of HDFS is the scaling of multiple files and blocks in the system. I will explain the fundamental change of Hadoop's storage infrastructure using Ozone technology which will be announced soon. This will allow Hadoop to scale billions of files and blocks in the future to a larger number of smaller objects than before.

Driving in the Desert - Running Your HDP Cluster with Helion, Openstack, and ...DataWorks Summit
DataWorks Summit 2017 - Sydney
Alejandro Tesch, Cloud Evangelist, Asia Pacific and Japan, HPE
Big Data is a hot topic today for most organisations today as they race to convert vast amounts of data into useful information that can be leveraged to make critical decisions and recommendations in a very limited time windows. Today, there is a widely accepted talent gap when it comes to creating and managing Hadoop cluster, even for the experts – it can take hours (or days) to get a fully functional hadoop farm up and running. The HDP Ambari plugin for Sahara is looking to address most of this challenges by facilitating the deployment of Hortonworks Hadoop clusters and provide a set of open API to facilitate data analytics tasks in your own cloud. In this presentation we will cover why it makes sense to run your data analytics cluster in your cloud and we will demonstrate basic Sahara / Ambari functionality.

As containerization continues to gain momentum and become a de facto standard for application deployment, challenges around containerization of big data workloads are coming to light. Great strides have been made within the open source communities towards running big data workloads in containers, but much is left to be done.
Apache Hadoop YARN is the modern distributed operating system for big data applications. It has morphed the Hadoop compute layer into a common resource-management platform that can host a wide variety of applications. At its core, YARN has a very powerful scheduler which enforces global cluster level invariants and helps sites manage user and operator expectations of elastic sharing, resource usage limits, SLAs, and more. YARN recently increased its support for Docker containerization and added a YARN service framework supporting long-running services.
In this session we will explore the emerging patterns and challenges related to containers and big data workloads, including running applications such as Apache Spark, Apache HBase, and Kubernetes in containers on YARN.

How is it that one system can query terabytes of data, yet still provide interactive query support? This talk will discuss two of the underlying technologies that allow Apache Hive to support fast query response, both on-premise in HDFS and in cloud object stores such as S3 and WASB.
LLAP was introduced in Hive 2.6. It provides standing processes that securely cache Hive’s columnar data and can do query processing without ever needing to start tasks in Hadoop. We will cover LLAP’s architecture, intended uses cases, and performance numbers for both on-premise and in the cloud.
The second technology is the integration of Hive with Apache Druid. Druid excels at low-latency, interactive queries over streaming data. Its method of storing data makes it very well suited for OLAP style queries. We will cover how Hive can be integrated with Druid to support real-time streaming of data from Kafka and OLAP queries.
10 Lessons Learned from Meeting with 150 Banks Across the GlobeDataWorks Summit
Who's looking at you? Your ocean of data--is it secure? Leading banks and capital markets firms process huge amounts of data from traditional and non-traditional sources. Regulatory risk is present in all of these businesses and there is always internal risk. A few rogue individuals can cause extraordinary losses if their malicious activities go unnoticed. And compliance teams need to analyze both data-in-motion and data-at-rest to detect suspicious activity in real-time.
Join Diego Baez, GM Financial Services for Hortonworks, as he discusses the top lessons learned over the last two years, from his work with over 150 Financial Services Companies across the globe, including Global Mega Banks, Regional institutions, Hedge Funds, Fintech, Regulators and Central banks. Hear as he covers the key lessons learned from these clients - what is working, what is not - and which institutions are harnessing the power of BigData and Analytics to transform their business.
Apache Hive is a rapidly evolving project which continues to enjoy great adoption in the big data ecosystem. As Hive continues to grow its support for analytics, reporting, and interactive query, the community is hard at work in improving it along with many different dimensions and use cases. This talk will provide an overview of the latest and greatest features and optimizations which have landed in the project over the last year. Materialized views, the extension of ACID semantics to non-ORC data, and workload management are some noteworthy new features.
We will discuss optimizations which provide major performance gains, including significantly improved performance for ACID tables. The talk will also provide a glimpse of what is expected to come in the near future.

Sharing metadata across the data lake and streamsDataWorks Summit
Traditionally systems have stored and managed their own metadata, just as they traditionally stored and managed their own data. A revolutionary feature of big data tools such as Apache Hadoop and Apache Kafka is the ability to store all data together, where users can bring the tools of their choice to process it.
Apache Hive's metastore can be used to share the metadata in the same way. It is already used by many SQL and SQL-like systems beyond Hive (e.g. Apache Spark, Presto, Apache Impala, and via HCatalog, Apache Pig). As data processing changes from only data in the cluster to include data in streams, the metastore needs to expand and grow to meet these use cases as well. There is work going on in the Hive community to separate out the metastore, so it can continue to serve Hive but also be used by a more diverse set of tools. This talk will discuss that work, with particular focus on adding support for storing schemas for Kafka messages.

Delivering a Flexible IT Infrastructure for Analytics on IBM Power SystemsHortonworks
Customers are preparing themselves to analyze and manage an increasing quantity of structured and unstructured data. Business leaders introduce new analytical workloads faster than what IT departments can handle. Legacy IT infrastructure needs to evolve to deliver operational improvements and cost containment, while increasing flexibility to meet future requirements. By providing HDP on IBM Power Systems, Hortonworks and IBM are giving customers have more choice in selecting the appropriate architectural platform that is right for them. In this webinar, we’ll discuss some of the challenges with deploying big data platforms, and how choosing solutions built with HDP on IBM Power Systems can offer tangible benefits and flexibility to accommodate changing needs.
Apache Hive is a rapidly evolving project, many people are loved by the big data ecosystem. Hive continues to expand support for analytics, reporting, and bilateral queries, and the community is striving to improve support along with many other aspects and use cases. In this lecture, we introduce the latest and greatest features and optimization that appeared in this project last year. This includes benchmarks covering LLAP, Apache Druid's materialized views and integration, workload management, ACID improvements, using Hive in the cloud, and performance improvements. I will also tell you a little about what you can expect in the future.
Lessons learned running a container cloud on YARNDataWorks Summit
Apache Hadoop YARN is the resource and application manager for Apache Hadoop. In the past, YARN only supported launching containers as processes. However, as containerization has become extremely popular, more and more users wanted support for launching Docker containers. With recent changes, YARN now supports running Docker containers alongside process containers. Coupled with the newly added support for long-running services on YARN, this allows a host of new possibilities.
In this talk, we'll present how to run a container cloud on YARN. Leveraging the support in YARN for Docker and long-running services, we can allow users to easily spin up sets of Docker containers for their applications. These containers can be self contained or wired up to form more complex applications. We will go over some of the lessons we learned as part of our experiences handling issues such as resource management, debugging application failures, running Docker, service discovery, etc.

Using Spark Streaming and NiFi for the Next Generation of ETL in the EnterpriseDataWorks Summit
In recent years, big data has moved from batch processing to stream-based processing since no one wants to wait hours or days to gain insights. Dozens of stream processing frameworks exist today and the same trend that occurred in the batch-based big data processing realm has taken place in the streaming world so that nearly every streaming framework now supports higher level relational operations.
On paper, combining Apache NiFi, Kafka, and Spark Streaming provides a compelling architecture option for building your next generation ETL data pipeline in near real time. What does this look like in an enterprise production environment to deploy and operationalized?
The newer Spark Structured Streaming provides fast, scalable, fault-tolerant, end-to-end exactly-once stream processing with elegant code samples, but is that the whole story?
We discuss the drivers and expected benefits of changing the existing event processing systems. In presenting the integrated solution, we will explore the key components of using NiFi, Kafka, and Spark, then share the good, the bad, and the ugly when trying to adopt these technologies into the enterprise. This session is targeted toward architects and other senior IT staff looking to continue their adoption of open source technology and modernize ingest/ETL processing. Attendees will take away lessons learned and experience in deploying these technologies to make their journey easier.

HDFS has several strengths: horizontally scale its IO bandwidth and scale its storage to petabytes of storage. Further, it provides very low latency metadata operations and scales to over 60K concurrent clients. Hadoop 3.0 recently added Erasure Coding. One of HDFS’s limitations is scaling a number of files and blocks in the system. We describe a radical change to Hadoop’s storage infrastructure with the upcoming Ozone technology. It allows Hadoop to scale to tens of billions of files and blocks and, in the future, to every larger number of smaller objects. Ozone fundamentally separates the namespace layer and the block layer allowing new namespace layers to be added in the future. Further, the use of RAFT protocol has allowed the storage layer to be self-consistent. We show how this technology helps a Hadoop user and also what it means for evolving HDFS in the future. We will also cover the technical details of Ozone.
Apache Hadoop YARN is the modern distributed operating system for big data applications. It morphed the Hadoop compute layer to be a common resource management platform that can host a wide variety of applications. Many organizations 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 start with the current status of Apache Hadoop YARN—how it is used today in deployments large and small. We'll then move on to the exciting present and future of YARN—features that are further strengthening YARN as the first class resource management platform for data centers running enterprise Hadoop.
We’ll discuss the current status as well as the future promise of features and initiatives like: powerful container placement, global scheduling, support for machine learning and deep learning workloads through GPU and FPGA support, extreme scale with YARN federation, containerized apps on YARN, support for long-running services (alongside applications) natively without any changes, seamless application upgrades, 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.
Deep learning on yarn running distributed tensorflow etc on hadoop cluster v3DataWorks Summit
Deep learning is useful for enterprises tasks in the field of speech recognition, image classification, AI chatbots, and machine translation, just to name a few.
In order to train deep learning/machine learning models, applications such as TensorFlow, MXNet, Caffe, and XGBoost can be leveraged. And sometimes these applications will be used together to solve different problems.
To make distributed deep learning/machine learning applications easily launched, managed, and monitored, we introduced, in Apache Hadoop 3.x, YARN native services along with other improvements such as first-class GPU support, container-DNS support, scheduling improvements, etc. These improvements make distributed deep learning/machine learning applications run on YARN as simple as running it locally, which can let machine learning engineers focus on algorithms instead of worrying about underlying infrastructure. Also, YARN can better manage a shared cluster which runs deep learning/machine learning and other services and ETL jobs with these improvements.
In this session, we will take a closer look at these improvements and show how to run these applications on YARN with demos. Audiences can start trying running these applications on YARN after this talk.

Hadoop operations started on-prem primarily driven by Apache Ambari. However, due to the agility and flexibility of the cloud, it has driven many Hadoop cluster operations to the cloud and to hybrid environments. Cloud is enabling many ephemeral on-demand use cases which is a game-changing opportunity for analytic workloads. But all of this comes with the challenges of running enterprise workloads in the cloud securely and with ease.
Apache Ambari is used by thousands of Hadoop Operators to manage the deployment, lifecycle, and automation of DevOps for Hadoop ecosystem projects. Starting out, Apache Ambari installed a handful of Apache Hadoop ecosystem projects, on a few operating systems, and helped with the most basic Hadoop operational tasks. Today, the product manages over 20 different services, runs on multiple major operating systems and versions, and automates many of the most challenging Hadoop operational tasks in the most secure customer environments.
In this session, we will also take you through Cloudbreak as a solution to simplify provisioning and managing enterprise workloads while providing an open and common experience for deploying workloads across clouds. We will discuss the challenges (and opportunities) to run enterprise workloads in the cloud and will go through a live demo of how the latest from Cloudbreak enables enterprises to easily and securely run Apache Hadoop. This includes deep-dive discussion on Ambari Blueprints, recipes, custom images, and enabling Kerberos -- which are all key capabilities for Enterprise deployments.
As part of this talk, will walk you through what we've learned, the challenges we've overcome, and how the Apache Ambari and Cloudbreak community has changed the product to handle them. The future is fast approaching, and with it comes new on-premise and cloud deployment architectures. See how Apache Ambari and Cloudbreak are being re-imagined to handle these new challenges.

The First Mile – Edge and IoT Data Collection with Apache NiFi and MiNiFiDataWorks Summit
Apache NiFi 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.
Abstract: 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 a 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.
Takeaways: Attendees will learn about opportunities to bring their data flow and capture closer to the "edge" -- sources of data like IoT devices, vehicles, machinery, etc. They will understand the possibilities to prioritize, filter, secure, and manipulate this data earlier in the data lifecycle to enhance their data visibility and performance.

Apache Hadoop YARN is the latest distributed operating system for HDSF for big data applications and storage. YARN has transformed the Hadoop Compute Layer into a general resource management platform capable of hosting a wide variety of applications.
This lecture begins with the current state how Apache Hadoop YARN is currently used in large scale deployment. The next topic will cover about strengthening YARN 's current and future - like YARN' s excitement - as a top-notch resource management platform for data centers running enterprise Hadoop. Discuss the current state and future of the following functions and initiatives: support of machine learning through strong container placement, global scheduling, GPU and FPGA support and deep learning workload, large scale of YARN federation, on YARN Containerized applications, natural support that does not change to long-running services (along with applications), seamless application upgrades, powerful scheduling functions, operational improvements and better queue management.
The second part of the lecture focuses on the latest enhancement of HDFS. HDFS has several advantages: horizontal scale of IO bandwidth, storage scaled to petabyte storage. In addition, it provides extremely low latency metadata operations and coordinates for over 60,000 concurrent clients. Hadoop 3.0 recently introduced Erasure Coding. One limitation of HDFS is the scaling of multiple files and blocks in the system. I will explain the fundamental change of Hadoop's storage infrastructure using Ozone technology which will be announced soon. This will allow Hadoop to scale billions of files and blocks in the future to a larger number of smaller objects than before.

Alejandro Tesch, Cloud Evangelist, Asia Pacific and Japan, HPE
Big Data is a hot topic today for most organisations today as they race to convert vast amounts of data into useful information that can be leveraged to make critical decisions and recommendations in a very limited time windows. Today, there is a widely accepted talent gap when it comes to creating and managing Hadoop cluster, even for the experts – it can take hours (or days) to get a fully functional hadoop farm up and running. The HDP Ambari plugin for Sahara is looking to address most of this challenges by facilitating the deployment of Hortonworks Hadoop clusters and provide a set of open API to facilitate data analytics tasks in your own cloud. In this presentation we will cover why it makes sense to run your data analytics cluster in your cloud and we will demonstrate basic Sahara / Ambari functionality.

Big data security challenges are bit different from traditional client-server applications and are distributed in nature, introducing unique security vulnerabilities. Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) has categorized the different security and privacy challenges into four different aspects of the big data ecosystem. These aspects are infrastructure security, data privacy, data management and, integrity and reactive security. Each of these aspects are further divided into following security challenges:
1. Infrastructure security
a. Secure distributed processing of data
b. Security best practices for non-relational data stores
2. Data privacy
a. Privacy-preserving analytics
b. Cryptographic technologies for big data
c. Granular access control
3. Data management
a. Secure data storage and transaction logs
b. Granular audits
c. Data provenance
4. Integrity and reactive security
a. Endpoint input validation/filtering
b. Real-time security/compliance monitoring
In this talk, we are going to refer above classification and identify existing security controls, best practices, and guidelines. We will also paint a big picture about how collective usage of all discussed security controls (Kerberos, TDE, LDAP, SSO, SSL/TLS, Apache Knox, Apache Ranger, Apache Atlas, Ambari Infra, etc.) can address fundamental security and privacy challenges that encompass the entire Hadoop ecosystem. We will also discuss briefly recent security incidents involving Hadoop systems.

Curing the Kafka blindness—Streams Messaging ManagerDataWorks Summit
Companies who use Kafka today struggle with monitoring and managing Kafka clusters. Kafka is a key backbone of IoT streaming analytics applications. The challenge is understanding what is going on overall in the Kafka cluster including performance, issues and message flows. No open source tool caters to the needs of different users that work with Kafka: DevOps/developers, platform team, and security/governance teams. See how the new Hortonworks Streams Messaging Manager enables users to visualize their entire Kafka environment end-to-end and simplifies Kafka operations.
In this session learn how SMM visualizes the intricate details of how Apache Kafka functions in real time while simultaneously surfacing every nuance of tuning, optimizing, and measuring input and output. SMM will assist users to quickly understand and operate Kafka while providing the much-needed transparency that sophisticated and experienced users need to avoid all the pitfalls of running a Kafka cluster.
How is it that one system can query terabytes of data, yet still provide interactive query support? This talk will discuss two of the underlying technologies that allow Apache Hive to support fast query response, both on-premise in HDFS and in cloud object stores such as S3 and WASB.
LLAP was introduced in Hive 2.6. It provides standing processes that securely cache Hive’s columnar data and can do query processing without ever needing to start tasks in Hadoop. We will cover LLAP’s architecture, intended uses cases, and performance numbers for both on-premise and in the cloud.
The second technology is the integration of Hive with Apache Druid. Druid excels at low-latency, interactive queries over streaming data. Its method of storing data makes it very well suited for OLAP style queries. We will cover how Hive can be integrated with Druid to support real-time streaming of data from Kafka and OLAP queries.

Floating on a RAFT: HBase Durability with Apache RatisDataWorks Summit
In a world with a myriad of distributed storage systems to choose from, the majority of Apache HBase clusters still rely on Apache HDFS. Theoretically, any distributed file system could be used by HBase. One major reason HDFS is predominantly used are the specific durability requirements of HBase's write-ahead log (WAL) and HDFS providing that guarantee correctly. However, HBase's use of HDFS for WALs can be replaced with sufficient effort.
This talk will cover the design of a "Log Service" which can be embedded inside of HBase that provides a sufficient level of durability that HBase requires for WALs. Apache Ratis (incubating) is a library-implementation of the RAFT consensus protocol in Java and is used to build this Log Service. We will cover the design choices of the Ratis Log Service, comparing and contrasting it to other log-based systems that exist today. Next, we'll cover how the Log Service "fits" into HBase and the necessary changes to HBase which enable this. Finally, we'll discuss how the Log Service can simplify the operational burden of HBase.
Tracking Crime as It Occurs with Apache Phoenix, Apache HBase and Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
Utilizing Apache NiFi we read various open data REST APIs and camera feeds to ingest crime and related data real-time streaming it into HBase and Phoenix tables. HBase makes an excellent storage option for our real-time time series data sources. We can immediately query our data utilizing Apache Zeppelin against Phoenix tables as well as Hive external tables to HBase.
Apache Phoenix tables also make a great option since we can easily put microservices on top of them for application usage. I have an example Spring Boot application that reads from our Philadelphia crime table for front-end web applications as well as RESTful APIs.
Apache NiFi makes it easy to push records with schemas to HBase and insert into Phoenix SQL tables.

HBase Tales From the Trenches - Short stories about most common HBase operati...DataWorks Summit
Whilst HBase is the most logical answer for use cases requiring random, realtime read/write access to Big Data, it may not be so trivial to design applications that make most of its use, neither the most simple to operate. As it depends/integrates with other components from Hadoop ecosystem (Zookeeper, HDFS, Spark, Hive, etc) or external systems ( Kerberos, LDAP), and its distributed nature requires a "Swiss clockwork" infrastructure, many variables are to be considered when observing anomalies or even outages. Adding to the equation there's also the fact that HBase is still an evolving product, with different release versions being used currently, some of those can carry genuine software bugs. On this presentation, we'll go through the most common HBase issues faced by different organisations, describing identified cause and resolution action over my last 5 years supporting HBase to our heterogeneous customer base.
Optimizing Geospatial Operations with Server-side Programming in HBase and Ac...DataWorks Summit
LocationTech GeoMesa enables spatial and spatiotemporal indexing and queries for HBase and Accumulo. In this talk, after an overview of GeoMesa’s capabilities in the Cloudera ecosystem, we will dive into how GeoMesa leverages Accumulo’s Iterator interface and HBase’s Filter and Coprocessor interfaces. The goal will be to discuss both what spatial operations can be pushed down into the distributed database and also how the GeoMesa codebase is organized to allow for consistent use across the two database systems.
OCLC has been using HBase since 2012 to enable single-search-box access to over a billion items from your library and the world’s library collection. This talk will provide an overview of how HBase is structured to provide this information and some of the challenges they have encountered to scale to support the world catalog and how they have overcome them.
Many individuals/organizations have a desire to utilize NoSQL technology, but often lack an understanding of how the underlying functional bits can be utilized to enable their use case. This situation can result in drastic increases in the desire to put the SQL back in NoSQL.
Since the initial commit, Apache Accumulo has provided a number of examples to help jumpstart comprehension of how some of these bits function as well as potentially help tease out an understanding of how they might be applied to a NoSQL friendly use case. One very relatable example demonstrates how Accumulo could be used to emulate a filesystem (dirlist).
In this session we will walk through the dirlist implementation. Attendees should come away with an understanding of the supporting table designs, a simple text search supporting a single wildcard (on file/directory names), and how the dirlist elements work together to accomplish its feature set. Attendees should (hopefully) also come away with a justification for sometimes keeping the SQL out of NoSQL.
HBase Global Indexing to support large-scale data ingestion at UberDataWorks Summit
Data serves as the platform for decision-making at Uber. To facilitate data driven decisions, many datasets at Uber are ingested in a Hadoop Data Lake and exposed to querying via Hive. Analytical queries joining various datasets are run to better understand business data at Uber.
Data ingestion, at its most basic form, is about organizing data to balance efficient reading and writing of newer data. Data organization for efficient reading involves factoring in query patterns to partition data to ensure read amplification is low. Data organization for efficient writing involves factoring the nature of input data - whether it is append only or updatable.
At Uber we ingest terabytes of many critical tables such as trips that are updatable. These tables are fundamental part of Uber's data-driven solutions, and act as the source-of-truth for all the analytical use-cases across the entire company. Datasets such as trips constantly receive updates to the data apart from inserts. To ingest such datasets we need a critical component that is responsible for bookkeeping information of the data layout, and annotates each incoming change with the location in HDFS where this data should be written. This component is called as Global Indexing. Without this component, all records get treated as inserts and get re-written to HDFS instead of being updated. This leads to duplication of data, breaking data correctness and user queries. This component is key to scaling our jobs where we are now handling greater than 500 billion writes a day in our current ingestion systems. This component will need to have strong consistency and provide large throughputs for index writes and reads.
At Uber, we have chosen HBase to be the backing store for the Global Indexing component and is a critical component in allowing us to scaling our jobs where we are now handling greater than 500 billion writes a day in our current ingestion systems. In this talk, we will discuss data@Uber and expound more on why we built the global index using Apache Hbase and how this helps to scale out our cluster usage. We’ll give details on why we chose HBase over other storage systems, how and why we came up with a creative solution to automatically load Hfiles directly to the backend circumventing the normal write path when bootstrapping our ingestion tables to avoid QPS constraints, as well as other learnings we had bringing this system up in production at the scale of data that Uber encounters daily.
Scaling Cloud-Scale Translytics Workloads with Omid and PhoenixDataWorks Summit
Recently, Apache Phoenix has been integrated with Apache (incubator) Omid transaction processing service, to provide ultra-high system throughput with ultra-low latency overhead. Phoenix has been shown to scale beyond 0.5M transactions per second with sub-5ms latency for short transactions on industry-standard hardware. On the other hand, Omid has been extended to support secondary indexes, multi-snapshot SQL queries, and massive-write transactions.
These innovative features make Phoenix an excellent choice for translytics applications, which allow converged transaction processing and analytics. We share the story of building the next-gen data tier for advertising platforms at Verizon Media that exploits Phoenix and Omid to support multi-feed real-time ingestion and AI pipelines in one place, and discuss the lessons learned.
Building the High Speed Cybersecurity Data Pipeline Using Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
Cybersecurity requires an organization to collect data, analyze it, and alert on cyber anomalies in near real-time. This is a challenging endeavor when considering the variety of data sources which need to be collected and analyzed. Everything from application logs, network events, authentications systems, IOT devices, business events, cloud service logs, and more need to be taken into consideration. In addition, multiple data formats need to be transformed and conformed to be understood by both humans and ML/AI algorithms.
To solve this problem, the Aetna Global Security team developed the Unified Data Platform based on Apache NiFi, which allows them to remain agile and adapt to new security threats and the onboarding of new technologies in the Aetna environment. The platform currently has over 60 different data flows with 95% doing real-time ETL and handles over 20 billion events per day. In this session learn from Aetna’s experience building an edge to AI high-speed data pipeline with Apache NiFi.
In the healthcare sector, data security, governance, and quality are crucial for maintaining patient privacy and ensuring the highest standards of care. At Florida Blue, the leading health insurer of Florida serving over five million members, there is a multifaceted network of care providers, business users, sales agents, and other divisions relying on the same datasets to derive critical information for multiple applications across the enterprise. However, maintaining consistent data governance and security for protected health information and other extended data attributes has always been a complex challenge that did not easily accommodate the wide range of needs for Florida Blue’s many business units. Using Apache Ranger, we developed a federated Identity & Access Management (IAM) approach that allows each tenant to have their own IAM mechanism. All user groups and roles are propagated across the federation in order to determine users’ data entitlement and access authorization; this applies to all stages of the system, from the broadest tenant levels down to specific data rows and columns. We also enabled audit attributes to ensure data quality by documenting data sources, reasons for data collection, date and time of data collection, and more. In this discussion, we will outline our implementation approach, review the results, and highlight our “lessons learned.”
Presto: Optimizing Performance of SQL-on-Anything EngineDataWorks Summit
Presto, an open source distributed SQL engine, is widely recognized for its low-latency queries, high concurrency, and native ability to query multiple data sources. Proven at scale in a variety of use cases at Airbnb, Bloomberg, Comcast, Facebook, FINRA, LinkedIn, Lyft, Netflix, Twitter, and Uber, in the last few years Presto experienced an unprecedented growth in popularity in both on-premises and cloud deployments over Object Stores, HDFS, NoSQL and RDBMS data stores.
With the ever-growing list of connectors to new data sources such as Azure Blob Storage, Elasticsearch, Netflix Iceberg, Apache Kudu, and Apache Pulsar, recently introduced Cost-Based Optimizer in Presto must account for heterogeneous inputs with differing and often incomplete data statistics. This talk will explore this topic in detail as well as discuss best use cases for Presto across several industries. In addition, we will present recent Presto advancements such as Geospatial analytics at scale and the project roadmap going forward.
Introducing MlFlow: An Open Source Platform for the Machine Learning Lifecycl...DataWorks Summit
Specialized tools for machine learning development and model governance are becoming essential. MlFlow is an open source platform for managing the machine learning lifecycle. Just by adding a few lines of code in the function or script that trains their model, data scientists can log parameters, metrics, artifacts (plots, miscellaneous files, etc.) and a deployable packaging of the ML model. Every time that function or script is run, the results will be logged automatically as a byproduct of those lines of code being added, even if the party doing the training run makes no special effort to record the results. MLflow application programming interfaces (APIs) are available for the Python, R and Java programming languages, and MLflow sports a language-agnostic REST API as well. Over a relatively short time period, MLflow has garnered more than 3,300 stars on GitHub , almost 500,000 monthly downloads and 80 contributors from more than 40 companies. Most significantly, more than 200 companies are now using MLflow. We will demo MlFlow Tracking , Project and Model components with Azure Machine Learning (AML) Services and show you how easy it is to get started with MlFlow on-prem or in the cloud.
Extending Twitter's Data Platform to Google CloudDataWorks Summit

Our platform support storage, compute, data ingestion, discovery and management and various tools and libraries to help users for both batch and realtime analytics. Our DataPlatform operates on multiple clusters across different data centers to help thousands of users discover valuable insights. As we were scaling our Data Platform to multiple clusters, we also evaluated various cloud vendors to support use cases outside of our data centers. In this talk we share our architecture and how we extend our data platform to use cloud as another datacenter. We walk through our evaluation process, challenges we faced supporting data analytics at Twitter scale on cloud and present our current solution. Extending Twitter's Data platform to cloud was complex task which we deep dive in this presentation.
Event-Driven Messaging and Actions using Apache Flink and Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
At Comcast, our team has been architecting a customer experience platform which is able to react to near-real-time events and interactions and deliver appropriate and timely communications to customers. By combining the low latency capabilities of Apache Flink and the dataflow capabilities of Apache NiFi we are able to process events at high volume to trigger, enrich, filter, and act/communicate to enhance customer experiences. Apache Flink and Apache NiFi complement each other with their strengths in event streaming and correlation, state management, command-and-control, parallelism, development methodology, and interoperability with surrounding technologies. We will trace our journey from starting with Apache NiFi over three years ago and our more recent introduction of Apache Flink into our platform stack to handle more complex scenarios. In this presentation we will compare and contrast which business and technical use cases are best suited to which platform and explore different ways to integrate the two platforms into a single solution.
Securing Data in Hybrid on-premise and Cloud Environments using Apache RangerDataWorks Summit
Companies are increasingly moving to the cloud to store and process data. One of the challenges companies have is in securing data across hybrid environments with easy way to centrally manage policies. In this session, we will talk through how companies can use Apache Ranger to protect access to data both in on-premise as well as in cloud environments. We will go into details into the challenges of hybrid environment and how Ranger can solve it. We will also talk through how companies can further enhance the security by leveraging Ranger to anonymize or tokenize data while moving into the cloud and de-anonymize dynamically using Apache Hive, Apache Spark or when accessing data from cloud storage systems. We will also deep dive into the Ranger’s integration with AWS S3, AWS Redshift and other cloud native systems. We will wrap it up with an end to end demo showing how policies can be created in Ranger and used to manage access to data in different systems, anonymize or de-anonymize data and track where data is flowing.
Big Data Meets NVM: Accelerating Big Data Processing with Non-Volatile Memory...DataWorks Summit
Advanced Big Data Processing frameworks have been proposed to harness the fast data transmission capability of Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) over high-speed networks such as InfiniBand, RoCEv1, RoCEv2, iWARP, and OmniPath. However, with the introduction of the Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) and NVM express (NVMe) based SSD, these designs along with the default Big Data processing models need to be re-assessed to discover the possibilities of further enhanced performance. In this talk, we will present, NRCIO, a high-performance communication runtime for non-volatile memory over modern network interconnects that can be leveraged by existing Big Data processing middleware. We will show the performance of non-volatile memory-aware RDMA communication protocols using our proposed runtime and demonstrate its benefits by incorporating it into a high-performance in-memory key-value store, Apache Hadoop, Tez, Spark, and TensorFlow. Evaluation results illustrate that NRCIO can achieve up to 3.65x performance improvement for representative Big Data processing workloads on modern data centers.
Background: Some early applications of Computer Vision in Retail arose from e-commerce use cases - but increasingly, it is being used in physical stores in a variety of new and exciting ways, such as:
● Optimizing merchandising execution, in-stocks and sell-thru
● Enhancing operational efficiencies, enable real-time customer engagement
● Enhancing loss prevention capabilities, response time
● Creating frictionless experiences for shoppers
Abstract: This talk will cover the use of Computer Vision in Retail, the implications to the broader Consumer Goods industry and share business drivers, use cases and benefits that are unfolding as an integral component in the remaking of an age-old industry.
We will also take a ‘peek under the hood’ of Computer Vision and Deep Learning, sharing technology design principles and skill set profiles to consider before starting your CV journey.
Deep learning has matured considerably in the past few years to produce human or superhuman abilities in a variety of computer vision paradigms. We will discuss ways to recognize these paradigms in retail settings, collect and organize data to create actionable outcomes with the new insights and applications that deep learning enables.
We will cover the basics of object detection, then move into the advanced processing of images describing the possible ways that a retail store of the near future could operate. Identifying various storefront situations by having a deep learning system attached to a camera stream. Such things as; identifying item stocks on shelves, a shelf in need of organization, or perhaps a wandering customer in need of assistance.
We will also cover how to use a computer vision system to automatically track customer purchases to enable a streamlined checkout process, and how deep learning can power plausible wardrobe suggestions based on what a customer is currently wearing or purchasing.
Finally, we will cover the various technologies that are powering these applications today. Deep learning tools for research and development. Production tools to distribute that intelligence to an entire inventory of all the cameras situation around a retail location. Tools for exploring and understanding the new data streams produced by the computer vision systems.
By the end of this talk, attendees should understand the impact Computer Vision and Deep Learning are having in the Consumer Goods industry, key use cases, techniques and key considerations leaders are exploring and implementing today.
Big Data Genomics: Clustering Billions of DNA Sequences with Apache SparkDataWorks Summit
Whole genome shotgun based next generation transcriptomics and metagenomics studies often generate 100 to 1000 gigabytes (GB) sequence data derived from tens of thousands of different genes or microbial species. De novo assembling these data requires an ideal solution that both scales with data size and optimizes for individual gene or genomes. Here we developed an Apache Spark-based scalable sequence clustering application, SparkReadClust (SpaRC), that partitions the reads based on their molecule of origin to enable downstream assembly optimization. SpaRC produces high clustering performance on transcriptomics and metagenomics test datasets from both short read and long read sequencing technologies. It achieved a near linear scalability with respect to input data size and number of compute nodes. SpaRC can run on different cloud computing environments without modifications while delivering similar performance. In summary, our results suggest SpaRC provides a scalable solution for clustering billions of reads from the next-generation sequencing experiments, and Apache Spark represents a cost-effective solution with rapid development/deployment cycles for similar big data genomics problems.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
