Maintaining Low Latency While Maximizing Throughput on a Single ClusterMapR Technologies
The good news: Hadoop has a lot of tools. The bad news: Hadoop has a lot of tools, and conflicting priorities. This talk shows how advances in YARN and Mesos allow you to run multiple distinct workloads together. We show how to use SLA and latency rules along with preemption in YARN to maintain high throughput while guaranteeing latency for applications such as HBase and Drill
From the Hadoop Summit 2015 Session with Ted Dunning:
Just when we thought the last mile problem was solved, the Internet of Things is turning the last mile problem of the consumer internet into the first mile problem of the industrial internet. This inversion impacts every aspect of the design of networked applications. I will show how to use existing Hadoop ecosystem tools, such as Spark, Drill and others, to deal successfully with this inversion. I will present real examples of how data from things leads to real business benefits and describe real techniques for how these examples work.
A talk given by Ted Dunning on February 2013 on Apache Drill, an open-source community-driven project to provide easy, dependable, fast and flexible ad hoc query capabilities.
MapR-DB is an enterprise-grade, high performance, in-Hadoop NoSQL (“Not Only SQL”) database management system. It is used to add real-time, operational analytics capabilities to Hadoop and now natively support JSON.
http://bit.ly/1BTaXZP – Hadoop has been a huge success in the data world. It’s disrupted decades of data management practices and technologies by introducing a massively parallel processing framework. The community and the development of all the Open Source components pushed Hadoop to where it is now.
That's why the Hadoop community is excited about Apache Spark. The Spark software stack includes a core data-processing engine, an interface for interactive querying, Sparkstreaming for streaming data analysis, and growing libraries for machine-learning and graph analysis. Spark is quickly establishing itself as a leading environment for doing fast, iterative in-memory and streaming analysis.
This talk will give an introduction the Spark stack, explain how Spark has lighting fast results, and how it complements Apache Hadoop.

Practice of large Hadoop cluster in China MobileDataWorks Summit
China Mobile Limited is the leading telecommunications services provider in China, with more than 800 million active users. In China Mobile, distributed big data clusters are built by branch companies in each province for their unique requirements. Meanwhile, we have built a centralized Hadoop cluster with scale more than 1600 nodes, on which we collect data from dozens of distributed clusters and make analysis for our business.
In this session, we will introduce the architecture of the centralized Hadoop cluster and experience of constructing and tuning this large scale Hadoop cluster. Key points are as follows:
1. About Ambari: we improve Ambari with features like supporting HDFS Federation and Ambari HA , improving its performance and enabling it to support up to 1600 nodes.
2. About HDFS: we build a large HDFS cluster with data up to 60PB, using federation, ViewFS, FairCallQueue. Our best practice of cluster operation and management will also be included.
3. About Flume: We use the reformed Flume to collect data as much as 200TB per day.

Deep learning has become widespread as frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch have made it easy to onboard machine learning applications. However, while it is easy to start developing with these frameworks on your local developer machine, scaling up a model to run on a cluster and train on huge datasets is still challenging. Code and dependencies have to be copied to every machine and defining the cluster configurations is tedious and error-prone. In addition, troubleshooting errors and aggregating logs is difficult. Ad-hoc solutions also lack resource guarantees, isolation from other jobs, and fault tolerance.
To solve these problems and make scaling deep learning easy, we have made several enhancements to Hadoop and built an open-source deep learning platform called TonY. In this talk, Anthony and Keqiu will discuss new Hadoop features useful for deep learning, such as GPU resource support, and deep dive into TonY, which lets you run deep learning programs natively on Hadoop. We will discuss TonY's architecture and how it allows users to manage their deep learning jobs, acting as a portal from which to launch notebooks, monitor jobs, and visualize training results.

The refactoring of Hadoop MapReduce framework, by separating resource management (YARN) from job execution (MapReduce) has allowed multiple programming paradigms to take advantage of the massive scale Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) clusters. Hamster (Hadoop And Mpi on the same cluSTER) is a port of OpenMPI to use YARN as a resource manager. Hamster allows applications written using MPI (Message Passing Interface) to run alongside other YARN applications and frameworks, such as MapReduce, on the same Hadoop cluster. In this talk, I will describe the architecture of Hamster, and present a few MPI applications that have been demonstrated to run in Hadoop. GraphLab uses MPI as one of the supported communication libraries, and can read/write data from/to HDFS. I will describe how GraphLab runs on top of Hadoop using Hamster, and present a few benchmarks in graph analytics, comparing GraphLab with other machine frameworks.
"The greater promise of Big Data lies not in doing old things in slightly new ways. Instead, it lies in doing new things that were previously not possible. One major class of new things is adding intelligence to large-scale systems. In this session I will present a survey of how machine learning can be applied to real-life situations without having to get a PhD in advanced mathematics. These systems can be built today from open source components to increase business revenues by understanding what customers need and want. I will provide real world examples of best practices and pitfalls in machine learning including practical ways to build maintainable, high performance systems." - Ted Dunning

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

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
