Introduction to Big Data & Hadoop Architecture - Module 1Rohit Agrawal
Learning Objectives - In this module, you will understand what is Big Data, What are the limitations of the existing solutions for Big Data problem; How Hadoop solves the Big Data problem, What are the common Hadoop ecosystem components, Hadoop Architecture, HDFS and Map Reduce Framework, and Anatomy of File Write and Read.
In this presentation, you will find an explanation for ETL process which stands for Extraction, Transform and Load. This process is used to Extract data from different resources, transform them to a suitable form and load these data into a data warehouse. Then it will show some information about data junction tool which is used in the ETL process.
The Information Technology have led us into an era where the production, sharing and use of information are now part of everyday life and of which we are often unaware actors almost: it is now almost inevitable not leave a digital trail of many of the actions we do every day; for example, by digital content such as photos, videos, blog posts and everything that revolves around the social networks (Facebook and Twitter in particular). Added to this is that with the "internet of things", we see an increase in devices such as watches, bracelets, thermostats and many other items that are able to connect to the network and therefore generate large data streams. This explosion of data justifies the birth, in the world of the term Big Data: it indicates the data produced in large quantities, with remarkable speed and in different formats, which requires processing technologies and resources that go far beyond the conventional systems management and storage of data. It is immediately clear that, 1) models of data storage based on the relational model, and 2) processing systems based on stored procedures and computations on grids are not applicable in these contexts. As regards the point 1, the RDBMS, widely used for a great variety of applications, have some problems when the amount of data grows beyond certain limits. The scalability and cost of implementation are only a part of the disadvantages: very often, in fact, when there is opposite to the management of big data, also the variability, or the lack of a fixed structure, represents a significant problem. This has given a boost to the development of the NoSQL database. The website NoSQL Databases defines NoSQL databases such as "Next Generation Databases mostly addressing some of the points: being non-relational, distributed, open source and horizontally scalable." These databases are: distributed, open source, scalable horizontally, without a predetermined pattern (key-value, column-oriented, document-based and graph-based), easily replicable, devoid of the ACID and can handle large amounts of data. These databases are integrated or integrated with processing tools based on the MapReduce paradigm proposed by Google in 2009. MapReduce with the open source Hadoop framework represent the new model for distributed processing of large amounts of data that goes to supplant techniques based on stored procedures and computational grids (step 2). The relational model taught courses in basic database design, has many limitations compared to the demands posed by new applications based on Big Data and NoSQL databases that use to store data and MapReduce to process large amounts of data.

A MapReduce job usually splits the input data-set into independent chunks which are processed by the map tasks in a completely parallel manner. The framework sorts the outputs of the maps, which are then input to the reduce tasks. Typically both the input and the output of the job are stored in a file-system.
Apache Spark Data Source V2 with Wenchen Fan and Gengliang WangDatabricks
As a general computing engine, Spark can process data from various data management/storage systems, including HDFS, Hive, Cassandra and Kafka. For flexibility and high throughput, Spark defines the Data Source API, which is an abstraction of the storage layer. The Data Source API has two requirements.
1) Generality: support reading/writing most data management/storage systems.
2) Flexibility: customize and optimize the read and write paths for different systems based on their capabilities.
Data Source API V2 is one of the most important features coming with Spark 2.3. This talk will dive into the design and implementation of Data Source API V2, with comparison to the Data Source API V1. We also demonstrate how to implement a file-based data source using the Data Source API V2 for showing its generality and flexibility.
Presentation on data preparation with pandasAkshitaKanther
Data preparation is the first step after you get your hands on any kind of dataset. This is the step when you pre-process raw data into a form that can be easily and accurately analyzed. Proper data preparation allows for efficient analysis - it can eliminate errors and inaccuracies that could have occurred during the data gathering process and can thus help in removing some bias resulting from poor data quality. Therefore a lot of an analyst's time is spent on this vital step.
Apache Hadoop is a framework for distributed computation and storage of very large data sets on computer clusters.

A Web Application Designed to Publish Information of Surface Manifestations o...Kudos S.A.S
The Colombian Geological Survey (SGC, for its acronym in Spanish) developed a web application for searching public information
of surface manifestations of hydrothermal systems, particularly hot springs and fumaroles.
This application was developed as a means to provide information to the general public, national industry users and researchers in
the areas of geothermal exploration, tectonics, geochemistry of hydrothermal fluids, geochemical monitoring of volcanic activity
and microbiology. Additionally, the application aims to encourage interaction and discussion of researchers on geochemistry of
volcanic and hydrothermal fluids to strengthen this research line in the SGC.
The information of the surface manifestations, made available through this application, includes general data on geographical and
geological location, in situ physicochemical features, images (pictures and videos), availability of spa infrastructure, pathways, as
well as chemical and isotopic composition of the liquid and gas phases. The main functions of the application include information
display, variables selection, and reports generation downloaded as pdf files, for general, geological and geochemical queries. The
geochemical module includes the option to plot the most common diagrams for gas and water geochemical interpretation (relative
triangular composition diagrams, Stiff, Schoeller, Piper and X-Y charts, including time series). This will be updated periodically,
with expanded coverage analysis in liquid and gas phases.
The loaded information includes individual records for 300 hot springs (and 11 fumaroles) located mainly in the Andean, Caribbean
and Pacific regions, most of them related with volcanoes. For some of these, historical records are taken from the information
review. The great diversity of chemical composition in these hot springs is expressed in their physicochemical characteristics:
highest temperature above 90 °C, pH between 1.2 and 9.7, and highest electrical conductivity above 50,000 uS/cm.

First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.
