The state of analytics has changed dramatically over the last few years. Hadoop is now commonplace, and the ecosystem has evolved to include new tools such as Spark, Shark, and Drill, that live alongside the old MapReduce-based standards. It can be difficult to keep up with the pace of change, and newcomers are left with a dizzying variety of seemingly similar choices. This is compounded by the number of possible deployment permutations, which can cause all but the most determined to simply stick with the tried and true. In this talk I will introduce you to a powerhouse combination of Cassandra and Spark, which provides a high-speed platform for both real-time and batch analysis.
Lessons Learned with Cassandra and Spark at the US Patent and Trademark OfficeDataStax Academy
This case study concerns moving large amounts of patent data from Cassandra to Solr. How we approached the problem, the introduction of Spark as a solution, and how to optimize Spark jobs. I will cover:
* Understanding the parts of a Spark Job. Which components run where and common issues.
* Adding metrics to show where pain points are in your code.
* Comparing various methods in the API to achieve more performant code.
* How we saved time and made a repeatable process with Spark.
Elassandra: Elasticsearch as a Cassandra Secondary Index (Rémi Trouville, Vin...DataStax
Many companies use both elasticsearch and cassandra, typically in the form of logs or time series, but managing many softwares at a large scale can be quite challenging. Elassandra tightly integrates elasticsearch within cassandra as a secondary index, allowing near-realtime search with all existing elasticsearch APIs, plugins and tools like Kibana. We will present the core concepts of elassandra and explain how it draws benefit from internal cassandra features to make elasticsearch masterless, scalable with automatic resharding, more reliable and more efficient than deploying both softwares. We will also explore the bidirectional mapping : the way elasticsearch automatically creates the corresponding cassandra schema and the way elasticsearch indexes an existing cassandra table. Furthermore, we will share some use cases and benchmark results demonstrating practical use of elassandra to scale-out, re-index with zero-downtime, search and visualize data with various tools.

Spark - The Ultimate Scala Collections by Martin OderskySpark Summit
Spark is a domain-specific language for working with collections that is implemented in Scala and runs on a cluster. While similar to Scala collections, Spark differs in that it is lazy and supports additional functionality for paired data. Scala can learn from Spark by adding views to make laziness clearer, caching for persistence, and pairwise operations. Types are important for Spark as they prevent logic errors and help with programming complex functional operations across a cluster.
An Introduction to Distributed Search with Datastax Enterprise SearchPatricia Gorla
This document introduces Cassandra and Solr for distributed search. It discusses how Cassandra is a distributed data store that powers search at Facebook and how Datastax Enterprise Search uses Cassandra to store data and a Solr index for fast, scalable full-text search. It covers how to set up a Cassandra and Solr cluster for distributed search and write, read, and query data across the cluster in a way that remains available, consistent, and scalable.
This document summarizes a system using Cassandra, Spark, and ELK (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) for processing streaming data. It describes how the Spark Cassandra Connector is used to represent Cassandra tables as Spark RDDs and write RDDs back to Cassandra. It also explains how data is extracted from Cassandra into RDDs based on token ranges, transformed using Spark, and indexed into Elasticsearch for visualization and analysis in Kibana. Recommendations are provided for improving performance of the Cassandra to Spark data extraction.
Apache Spark in Depth: Core Concepts, Architecture & InternalsAnton Kirillov
Slides cover Spark core concepts of Apache Spark such as RDD, DAG, execution workflow, forming stages of tasks and shuffle implementation and also describes architecture and main components of Spark Driver. The workshop part covers Spark execution modes , provides link to github repo which contains Spark Applications examples and dockerized Hadoop environment to experiment with
Spark streaming provides stream processing functionality as an abstraction over core Spark. It processes data in micro-batches, where streaming data is buffered for a given interval and then processed as RDDs by core Spark. The processing time of each micro-batch must be less than the batch interval to avoid bottlenecks. Performance can be tuned by parallelizing data consumption from sources like Kafka, and balancing Spark partitions for parallel processing with available cores.
Apache Cassandra is a leading open-source distributed database capable of amazing feats of scale, but its data model requires a bit of planning for it to perform well. Of course, the nature of ad-hoc data exploration and analysis requires that we be able to ask questions we hadn’t planned on asking—and get an answer fast. Enter Apache Spark.
Spark is a distributed computation framework optimized to work in-memory, and heavily influenced by concepts from functional programming languages. It’s exactly what a Cassandra cluster needs to deliver real-time, ad-hoc querying of operational data at scale.
In this talk, we’ll explore Spark and see how it works together with Cassandra to deliver a powerful open-source big data analytic solution.
Apache Cassandra is a free, distributed, open source, and highly scalable NoSQL database that is designed to handle large amounts of data across many commodity servers. It provides high availability with no single point of failure, linear scalability, and tunable consistency. Cassandra's architecture allows it to spread data across a cluster of servers and replicate across multiple data centers for fault tolerance. It is used by many large companies for applications that require high performance, scalability, and availability.
Cassandra as event sourced journal for big data analyticsAnirvan Chakraborty
Avoiding destructive updates and keeping history of data using event sourcing approaches has large advantages for data analytics. This talk describes how Cassandra can be used as event journal as part of CQRS/Lambda Architecture using event sourcing and further used for data mining and machine learning purposes in a big data pipeline.
All the principles are demonstrated on an application called Muvr that we built. It uses data from wearable devices such as accelerometer in a watch or heartbeat monitor to classify user's exercises in near real time. It uses mobile devices and clustered Akka actor framework to distribute computation and then stores events as immutable facts in journal backed by Cassandra. The data are then read by Apache Spark and used for more expensive analytics and machine learning tasks such as suggests improvements to user's exercise routine or improves machine learning models for better real time exercise classification that can be used immediately. The talk mentions some of the internals of Spark when working with Cassandra and focuses on its machine learning capabilities enabled by Cassandra. A lot of the analytics are done for each user individually so the whole pipeline must handle potentially large amount of concurrent users and a lot of raw data so we need to ensure attributes such as responsiveness, elasticity and resilience.

Hadoop Interview Questions and Answers - More than 130 real time questions and answers covering hadoop hdfs,mapreduce and administrative concepts by rohit kapa
Hadoop is an open source framework for distributed storage and processing of vast amounts of data across clusters of computers. It uses a master-slave architecture with a single JobTracker master and multiple TaskTracker slaves. The JobTracker schedules tasks like map and reduce jobs on TaskTrackers, which each run task instances in separate JVMs. It monitors task progress and reschedules failed tasks. Hadoop uses MapReduce programming model where the input is split and mapped in parallel, then outputs are shuffled, sorted, and reduced to form the final results.

2. Data Source
• I used the movielens data set for my examples:
• Details about the data are at:
http://www.grouplens.org/datasets/movielens/
• I used the 10M review dataset
• A direct link to the10M dataset files:
http://files.grouplens.org/datasets/movielens/ml-
10m.zip
3. Code Examples
• Here is a Gist with the Spark Shell code I
executed during the presentation:
• https://gist.github.com/erichgess/292dd29513e3
393bf969
4. Overview
• What is Spark
• Spark Introduction
• Spark + Cassandra
• Demonstrations
5. Goal
• Build out the basic foundations for using Spark
with Cassandra
• Simple Introduction
• Give a couple examples showing how to use
Spark with Cassandra
6. What is Spark
• Distributed Compute Platform
• In Memory (FAST)
• Batch and Stream Processing
• Multi-language Support
• Java, Python, and Scala out of the box
• Shell – You can do interactive distributed
computing and analytics in Scala or Python
7. The Basics
• Spark Context
• The connection to the cluster
• The Resilient Distributed Dataset
• Abstracts the distributed data
• The core of Spark
• Functional First Approach
• Less code, more obvious intentions
8. Spark Context
• This is your connection to the Spark cluster
• Create RDDs
• When you open the Spark Shell, it
automatically creates a context to the cluster
• When writing a standalone application to run on
Spark you create a SparkContext and configure
it to connect to the cluster
9. The Resilient Distributed Dataset
• Use this to interact with data that has been
distributed across the cluster
• The RDD is the starting point for doing parallel
computations on Spark
• External Datasets
• HDFS, S3, SQL, Cassandra, and so on
10. The Resilient Distributed Dataset
• Functional Transformations
• These transform the individual elements of the
RDD in one form or another
• Map, Reduce, Filter, etc.
• Lazy Evaluation: until you do something which
requires a result, nothing is evaluated
• These will be familiar if you work with any functional
language or Scala/C#/Java8
11. The RDD (2)
• Cache into Memory
• Lets you put an RDD into memory
• Dramatically speeds up processing on large
datasets
• The RDD will not be put in memory until an action
forces the RDD to be computed (this is the lazy
evaluation again)
12. Transformations
• Transformations are monadic
• They take an RDD and return an RDD
• The type the RDD wraps is irrelevant
• Can be chained together
• Map, filter, etc
• Simply Put: Transformations return another
RDD, Actions do not
13. Transformations
• myData.filter( x => x %2 == 1)
• myData.filter( x => x%2 == 1).map(y => 2*y)
• myData.map( x=> x/4).groupBy(x=>x > 10)
14. Actions
• Actions
• These are functions which “unwrap” the RDD
• They return a value of a non RDD type
• Because of this they force the RDD and
transformation chain to be evaluated
• Reduce, fold, count, first, etc
16. The Shell
• Spark provides a Scala and a Python shell
• Do interactive distributed computing
• Let's you build complex programs while testing
them on the cluster
• Connects to the full Spark cluster
17. Spark + Data
• Out of the Box
• Spark supports standard Hadoop inputs
• HDFS
• Other Data Sources
• Third Party drivers allow connecting to other data
stores
• SQL Databases
• Cassandra
• Data gets put into an RDD
18. Spark + Cassandra
• DataStax provides an easy to use driver to
connect Spark to Cassandra
• Configure everything with DataStax Enterprise
and the DataStax Analytics stack
• Read and write data from Spark
• Interact with Cassandra through the Spark
Shell
19. Spark + DSE
• Each node has both a Spark worker and
Cassandra
• Data Locality Awareness
• The Spark workers are aware of the locality of data
and will pull the data on their local Cassandra

20. Pulling Some Data from Cassandra
• Use the SparkContext to get to the data
• sc.cassandraTable(keyspace,table)
• This returns an RDD (which has not actually been
evaluated because it's lazy)
• The RDD represents all the data in that table
• The RDD is of Row type
• The Row type is a type which can represent any
single row from a Cassandra table
21. Sample Code
• Reading From Cassandra:
• val data = sc.cassandraTable(“spark_demo”,
“first_example” )
• data is an RDD of type CassandraRow. To
access values you need to use the get[A]
method:
• data.first.get[Int]("value")
22. Pulling Data a Little Cleaner
• The Row type is a little messy to deal with
• Let's use a case class to load a table directly
into a type which represents what's in the table
• Case class MyData(Id: Int, Text: String)
• sc.cassandraTable[MyData](keyspace,table)
• Now we get an RDD of MyData elements
23. Sample Code
• Reading from Cassandra:
• case class FirstExample(Id: Int, Value: Int)
• val data =
sc.cassandraTable[FirstExample](“spark_demo”
, “first_example”)
• This returns an RDD of type FirstExample:
• data.first.Value
24. Saving back into Cassandra
• The RDD has a function called
saveToCassandra
• MyData.saveToCassandra(keyspace,table)
25. Sample Code
• val data = Seq(FirstExample(1,1),
FirstExample(2,2))
• val pdata = sc.parallelize(data)
• pdata.saveToCassandra(“spark_demo”,
“first_example”)
26. Simple Demo
• Pull data out of Cassandra
• Process that data
• Save back into Cassandra
