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.
