MapR provides a Hadoop distribution that can run on Google Compute Engine. It is fast, easy to provision, and cost effective compared to on-premise hardware. MapR clusters on GCE can be started with a single command and provide a fully functional Hadoop environment within minutes. This allows huge clusters to be easily created and torn down on demand in the cloud at low cost. MapR also provides features for high availability, security, and multi-tenancy on GCE.

9. Overview of Starting a Cluster
• Google’s gcutil is your friend
• Very easy tool for spinning up instances
• MapR is creating a tool and infrastructure to spin up a fully functional MapR
cluster composed of many nodes
• ./mapr-start-cluster.sh –machine-type <…> -masters <#> -slaves <#>
• …wait a few minutes
• gcutil ssh <node running admin server> and set admin’s password
• gcutil listinstances (to find your cluster’s IP addresses)
• … use the cluster, it’s fully functional
• ./mapr-stop-cluster.sh
• …billing for cluster stops
* Note that this is not the final interface, but rather is representative of what will be released. Some details omitted for
clarity.

§ ensure that data is stored in the
locations you want
§ Control mirroring and snapshotting
§ Job management
§ Control where jobs run
§ ensure that jobs run where you want
§ Historical view of metrics collected from
jobs
§ ease troubleshooting of job issues
§ Security/Protection
§ Fine grained permissions on volume and
cluster management, including delegation

Introducing Apache Drill…

27. Innovations
• MapReduce
• Scalable IO and compute trumps efficiency with today's commodity hardware
• With large datasets, schemas and indexes are too limiting
• Flexibility is more important than efficiency
• An easy to use scalable, fault tolerant execution framework is key for large
clusters
• Dremel
• Columnar storage provides significant performance benefits at scale
• Columnar storage with nesting preserves structure and can be very efficient
• Avoiding final record assembly as long as possible improves efficiency
• Optimizing for the query use case can avoid the full generality of MR and thus
significantly reduce latency. No need to start JVMs, just push compact queries to
running agents.
• Apache Drill
• Open source project based upon Dremel’s ideas
• More flexibility and openness
