ORC files were originally introduced in Hive, but have now migrated to an independent Apache project. This has sped up the development of ORC and simplified integrating ORC into other projects, such as Hadoop, Spark, Presto, and Nifi. There are also many new tools that are built on top of ORC, such as Hive’s ACID transactions and LLAP, which provides incredibly fast reads for your hot data. LLAP also provides strong security guarantees that allow each user to only see the rows and columns that they have permission for.
This talk will discuss the details of the ORC and Parquet formats and what the relevant tradeoffs are. In particular, it will discuss how to format your data and the options to use to maximize your read performance. In particular, we’ll discuss when and how to use ORC’s schema evolution, bloom filters, and predicate push down. It will also show you how to use the tools to translate ORC files into human-readable formats, such as JSON, and display the rich metadata from the file including the type in the file and min, max, and count for each column.
Tez is the next generation Hadoop Query Processing framework written on top of YARN. Computation topologies in higher level languages like Pig/Hive can be naturally expressed in the new graph dataflow model exposed by Tez. Multi-stage queries can be expressed as a single Tez job resulting in lower latency for short queries and improved throughput for large scale queries. MapReduce has been the workhorse for Hadoop but its monolithic structure had made innovation slower. YARN separates resource management from application logic and thus enables the creation of Tez, a more flexible and generic new framework for data processing for the benefit of the entire Hadoop query ecosystem.
Performance Update: When Apache ORC Met Apache SparkDataWorks Summit
Apache Spark 1.4 introduced support for Apache ORC. However, initially it did not take advantage of the full power of ORC. For instance, it was slow because ORC vectorization was not used and push-down predicate wa s also not supported on DATE types. Recently the Apache Spark community has started to use the latest Apache ORC which include new enhancements to address these limitations. In this talk, we show the result of integrating the latest Apache ORC and Apache Spark. We will also review the latest enhancements and roadmap.

Magnet Shuffle Service: Push-based Shuffle at LinkedInDatabricks
The number of daily Apache Spark applications at LinkedIn has increased by 3X in the past year. The shuffle process alone, which is one of the most costly operators in batch computation, is processing PBs of data and billions of blocks daily in our clusters. With such a rapid increase of Apache Spark workloads, we quickly realized that the shuffle process can become a severe bottleneck for both infrastructure scalability and workloads efficiency. In our production clusters, we have observed both reliability issues due to shuffle fetch connection failures and efficiency issues due to the random reads of small shuffle blocks on HDDs.
To tackle those challenges and optimize shuffle performance in Apache Spark, we have developed Magnet shuffle service, a push-based shuffle mechanism that works natively with Apache Spark. Our paper on Magnet has been accepted by VLDB 2020. In this talk, we will introduce how push-based shuffle can drastically increase shuffle efficiency when compared with the existing pull-based shuffle. In addition, by combining push-based shuffle and pull-based shuffle, we show how Magnet shuffle service helps to harden shuffle infrastructure at LinkedIn scale by both reducing shuffle related failures and removing scaling bottlenecks. Furthermore, we will share our experiences of productionizing Magnet at LinkedIn to process close to 10 PB of daily shuffle data.
This presentation describes how to efficiently load data into Hive. I cover partitioning, predicate pushdown, ORC file optimization and different loading schemes

Spark Shuffle Deep Dive (Explained In Depth) - How Shuffle Works in SparkBo Yang
The slides explain how shuffle works in Spark and help people understand more details about Spark internal. It shows how the major classes are implemented, including: ShuffleManager (SortShuffleManager), ShuffleWriter (SortShuffleWriter, BypassMergeSortShuffleWriter, UnsafeShuffleWriter), ShuffleReader (BlockStoreShuffleReader).
Apache Spark 2.3, released on February 2018, is the fourth release in 2.x line and has a lot of new improvements. One of the notable improvements is ORC support. Apache Spark 2.3 adds a native ORC file format implementation by using the latest Apache ORC 1.4.1. Users can switch between “native” and “hive” ORC file formats. Hive ORC file format is the existing one until Spark 2.2.
In this talk, I'll talk about three key changes. First of all, performance. New native ORC implementation is faster 2x - 11x times on 10TB TPCDS benchmark. Vectorized query execution over ORC files improves Spark ORC query execution greatly. Especially, ORC filter pushdown can be faster than Parquet due to in-file indexes. Second, as a part of native ORC support, Spark 2.3 can convert the Hive ORC tables into Spark ORC data sources automatically. This solves several existing ORC issues and Spark 2.4 will enable it by default. Last, but not least, Spark 2.3 officially supports structural streaming over ORC data sources. You can create a streaming dataset over ORC files.

Cosco: An Efficient Facebook-Scale Shuffle ServiceDatabricks
Cosco is an efficient shuffle-as-a-service that powers Spark (and Hive) jobs at Facebook warehouse scale. It is implemented as a scalable, reliable and maintainable distributed system. Cosco is based on the idea of partial in-memory aggregation across a shared pool of distributed memory. This provides vastly improved efficiency in disk usage compared to Spark's built-in shuffle. Long term, we believe the Cosco architecture will be key to efficiently supporting jobs at ever larger scale. In this talk we'll take a deep dive into the Cosco architecture and describe how it's deployed at Facebook. We will then describe how it's integrated to run shuffle for Spark, and contrast it with Spark's built-in sort-based shuffle mechanism and SOS (presented at Spark+AI Summit 2018).
How to build a streaming Lakehouse with Flink, Kafka, and HudiFlink Forward
Flink Forward San Francisco 2022.
With a real-time processing engine like Flink and a transactional storage layer like Hudi, it has never been easier to build end-to-end low-latency data platforms connecting sources like Kafka to data lake storage. Come learn how to blend Lakehouse architectural patterns with real-time processing pipelines with Flink and Hudi. We will dive deep on how Flink can leverage the newest features of Hudi like multi-modal indexing that dramatically improves query and write performance, data skipping that reduces the query latency by 10x for large datasets, and many more innovations unique to Flink and Hudi.

Hive Bucketing in Apache Spark with Tejas PatilDatabricks
Bucketing is a partitioning technique that can improve performance in certain data transformations by avoiding data shuffling and sorting. The general idea of bucketing is to partition, and optionally sort, the data based on a subset of columns while it is written out (a one-time cost), while making successive reads of the data more performant for downstream jobs if the SQL operators can make use of this property. Bucketing can enable faster joins (i.e. single stage sort merge join), the ability to short circuit in FILTER operation if the file is pre-sorted over the column in a filter predicate, and it supports quick data sampling.
In this session, you’ll learn how bucketing is implemented in both Hive and Spark. In particular, Patil will describe the changes in the Catalyst optimizer that enable these optimizations in Spark for various bucketing scenarios. Facebook’s performance tests have shown bucketing to improve Spark performance from 3-5x faster when the optimization is enabled. Many tables at Facebook are sorted and bucketed, and migrating these workloads to Spark have resulted in a 2-3x savings when compared to Hive. You’ll also hear about real-world applications of bucketing, like loading of cumulative tables with daily delta, and the characteristics that can help identify suitable candidate jobs that can benefit from bucketing.
Dynamic Partition Pruning in Apache SparkDatabricks
In data analytics frameworks such as Spark it is important to detect and avoid scanning data that is irrelevant to the executed query, an optimization which is known as partition pruning. Dynamic partition pruning occurs when the optimizer is unable to identify at parse time the partitions it has to eliminate. In particular, we consider a star schema which consists of one or multiple fact tables referencing any number of dimension tables. In such join operations, we can prune the partitions the join reads from a fact table by identifying those partitions that result from filtering the dimension tables. In this talk we present a mechanism for performing dynamic partition pruning at runtime by reusing the dimension table broadcast results in hash joins and we show significant improvements for most TPCDS queries.
Deep Dive: Memory Management in Apache SparkDatabricks
Memory management is at the heart of any data-intensive system. Spark, in particular, must arbitrate memory allocation between two main use cases: buffering intermediate data for processing (execution) and caching user data (storage). This talk will take a deep dive through the memory management designs adopted in Spark since its inception and discuss their performance and usability implications for the end user.
This deck presents the best practices of using Apache Hive with good performance. It covers getting data into Hive, using ORC file format, getting good layout into partitions and files based on query patterns, execution using Tez and YARN queues, memory configuration, and debugging common query performance issues. It also describes Hive Bucketing and reading Hive Explain query plans.

In a world where compute is paramount, it is all too easy to overlook the importance of storage and IO in the performance and optimization of Spark jobs.
Hive’s RCFile has been the standard format for storing Hive data for the last 3 years. However, RCFile has limitations because it treats each column as a binary blob without semantics. The upcoming Hive 0.11 will add a new file format named Optimized Row Columnar (ORC) file that uses and retains the type information from the table definition. ORC uses type specific readers and writers that provide light weight compression techniques such as dictionary encoding, bit packing, delta encoding, and run length encoding -- resulting in dramatically smaller files. Additionally, ORC can apply generic compression using zlib, LZO, or Snappy on top of the lightweight compression for even smaller files. However, storage savings are only part of the gain. ORC supports projection, which selects subsets of the columns for reading, so that queries reading only one column read only the required bytes. Furthermore, ORC files include light weight indexes that include the minimum and maximum values for each column in each set of 10,000 rows and the entire file. Using pushdown filters from Hive, the file reader can skip entire sets of rows that aren’t important for this query. Finally, ORC works together with the upcoming query vectorization work providing a high bandwidth reader/writer interface.
Hadoop & cloud storage object store integration in production (final)Chris Nauroth
Today's typical Apache Hadoop deployments use HDFS for persistent, fault-tolerant storage of big data files. However, recent emerging architectural patterns increasingly rely on cloud object storage such as S3, Azure Blob Store, GCS, which are designed for cost-efficiency, scalability and geographic distribution. Hadoop supports pluggable file system implementations to enable integration with these systems for use cases such as off-site backup or even complex multi-step ETL, but applications may encounter unique challenges related to eventual consistency, performance and differences in semantics compared to HDFS. This session explores those challenges and presents recent work to address them in a comprehensive effort spanning multiple Hadoop ecosystem components, including the Object Store FileSystem connector, Hive, Tez and ORC. Our goal is to improve correctness, performance, security and operations for users that choose to integrate Hadoop with Cloud Storage. We use S3 and S3A connector as case study.

Fast Spark Access To Your Complex Data - Avro, JSON, ORC, and ParquetOwen O'Malley
The landscape for storing your big data is quite complex, with several competing formats and different implementations of each format. Understanding your use of the data is critical for picking the format. Depending on your use case, the different formats perform very differently. Although you can use a hammer to drive a screw, it isn’t fast or easy to do so.
The use cases that we’ve examined are:
reading all of the columns
reading a few of the columns
filtering using a filter predicate
While previous work has compared the size and speed from Hive, this presentation will present benchmarks from Spark including the new work that radically improves the performance of Spark on ORC. This presentation will also include tips and suggestions to optimize the performance of your application while reading and writing the data.

Disaster Recovery and Cloud Migration for your Apache Hive WarehouseSankar H
As Apache Hadoop clusters become central to an organization’s operations, they have clusters in more than one data center. Historically, this has been largely driven by requirements of business continuity planning or geo localization. It has also recently been gaining a lot of interest from a hybrid cloud perspective, i.e. wherein people are trying to augment their traditional on-prem setup with cloud-based additions as well. A robust replication solution is a fundamental requirement in such cases.
The Apache Hive community has been working on new capabilities for efficient and fault tolerant replication of data in the Hive warehouse. In this talk, we will discuss these new capabilities, how it works, what replication at Hive-scale looks like, what challenges it poses, what we have done to solve those issues. We will also focus on what we need to be aware of in our usecase that might make replication optimal.
Similar to ORC File - Optimizing Your Big Data (20)
Introduction: This workshop will provide a hands-on introduction to Machine Learning (ML) with an overview of Deep Learning (DL).
Format: An introductory lecture on several supervised and unsupervised ML techniques followed by light introduction to DL and short discussion what is current state-of-the-art. Several python code samples using the scikit-learn library will be introduced that users will be able to run in the Cloudera Data Science Workbench (CDSW).
Objective: To provide a quick and short hands-on introduction to ML with python’s scikit-learn library. The environment in CDSW is interactive and the step-by-step guide will walk you through setting up your environment, to exploring datasets, training and evaluating models on popular datasets. By the end of the crash course, attendees will have a high-level understanding of popular ML algorithms and the current state of DL, what problems they can solve, and walk away with basic hands-on experience training and evaluating ML models.
Prerequisites: For the hands-on portion, registrants must bring a laptop with a Chrome or Firefox web browser. These labs will be done in the cloud, no installation needed. Everyone will be able to register and start using CDSW after the introductory lecture concludes (about 1hr in). Basic knowledge of python highly recommended.
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.

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.

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.

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.
