The flexibility of Apache Hadoop is one of its biggest assets – enabling businesses to generate value from data that was previously considered too expensive to be stored and processed in traditional databases – but also results in Hadoop meaning different things to different people. In this session 451 Research’s Matt Aslett will explore the impact that Hadoop is having on the traditional data processing landscape, examining the expanding ecosystem of vendors and their relationships with Apache Hadoop, investigating the increasing variety of Hadoop use-cases, and exploring adoption trends around the world.
IT @ Intel: Preparing the Future Enterprise with the Internet of ThingsIntel IT Center
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the concept of diverse machines, devices, and technologies connecting, interacting, and negotiating with each other to help improve and enrich our lives. No longer is this limited to just computer or smart phone technology. Everyday items such as household appliance, cars and even toys can connect to the internet to integrate with other computing things, processes and services. This new paradigm is changing how data is used and collected, and introducing new challenges for enterprises.

Big Data Analytics: Applications and Opportunities in On-line Predictive Mode...BigMine
Talk by Usama Fayyad at BigMine12 at KDD12.
Virtually all organizations are having to deal with Big Data in many contexts: marketing, operations, monitoring, performance, and even financial management. Big Data is characterized not just by its size, but by its Velocity and its Variety for which keeping up with the data flux, let alone its analysis, is challenging at best and impossible in many cases. In this talk I will cover some of the basics in terms of infrastructure and design considerations for effective an efficient BigData. In many organizations, the lack of consideration of effective infrastructure and data management leads to unnecessarily expensive systems for which the benefits are insufficient to justify the costs. We will refer to example frameworks and clarify the kinds of operations where Map-Reduce (Hadoop and and its derivatives) are appropriate and the situations where other infrastructure is needed to perform segmentation, prediction, analysis, and reporting appropriately – these being the fundamental operations in predictive analytics. We will thenpay specific attention to on-line data and the unique challenges and opportunities represented there. We cover examples of Predictive Analytics over Big Data with case studies in eCommerce Marketing, on-line publishing and recommendation systems, and advertising targeting: Special focus will be placed on the analysis of on-line data with applications in Search, Search Marketing, and targeting of advertising. We conclude with some technical challenges as well as the solutions that can be used to these challenges in social network data.
Left Brain, Right Brain: How to Unify Enterprise AnalyticsInside Analysis
The Briefing Room with Robin Bloor and Teradata
Live Webcast on Jan. 29, 2013
Despite its name, effective Data Science requires a certain amount of artistic flair. Analysts must be creative about how and where they find the insights that will drive business value. One classic roadblock to that kind of frictionless process? Programming. Not everyone can code Java, which makes the unstructured domain of Hadoop quite challenging for the average business analyst.
Check out the slides from this episode of the Briefing Room to hear veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor explain how a new generation of analytical platforms will solve the complexity of unifying structured and unstructured data. He'll be briefed by Steve Wooledge of Teradata Aster who will tout his company's Big Data Appliance, which leverages the SQL-H bridge, an innovation designed to connect Hadoop with SQL.

A Review Paper on Big Data and Hadoop for Data Scienceijtsrd
Big data is a collection of large datasets that cannot be processed using traditional computing techniques. It is not a single technique or a tool, rather it has become a complete subject, which involves various tools, technqiues and frameworks. Hadoop is an open source framework that allows to store and process big data in a distributed environment across clusters of computers using simple programming models. It is designed to scale up from single servers to thousands of machines, each offering local computation and storage.

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.
These innovative features make Phoenix an excellent choice for translytics applications, which allow converged transaction processing and analytics. We share the story of building the next-gen data tier for advertising platforms at Verizon Media that exploits Phoenix and Omid to support multi-feed real-time ingestion and AI pipelines in one place, and discuss the lessons learned.
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.
Extending Twitter's Data Platform to Google CloudDataWorks Summit
Twitter's Data Platform is built using multiple complex open source and in house projects to support Data Analytics on hundreds of petabytes of data. Our platform support storage, compute, data ingestion, discovery and management and various tools and libraries to help users for both batch and realtime analytics. Our DataPlatform operates on multiple clusters across different data centers to help thousands of users discover valuable insights. As we were scaling our Data Platform to multiple clusters, we also evaluated various cloud vendors to support use cases outside of our data centers. In this talk we share our architecture and how we extend our data platform to use cloud as another datacenter. We walk through our evaluation process, challenges we faced supporting data analytics at Twitter scale on cloud and present our current solution. Extending Twitter's Data platform to cloud was complex task which we deep dive in this presentation.
Event-Driven Messaging and Actions using Apache Flink and Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
At Comcast, our team has been architecting a customer experience platform which is able to react to near-real-time events and interactions and deliver appropriate and timely communications to customers. By combining the low latency capabilities of Apache Flink and the dataflow capabilities of Apache NiFi we are able to process events at high volume to trigger, enrich, filter, and act/communicate to enhance customer experiences. Apache Flink and Apache NiFi complement each other with their strengths in event streaming and correlation, state management, command-and-control, parallelism, development methodology, and interoperability with surrounding technologies. We will trace our journey from starting with Apache NiFi over three years ago and our more recent introduction of Apache Flink into our platform stack to handle more complex scenarios. In this presentation we will compare and contrast which business and technical use cases are best suited to which platform and explore different ways to integrate the two platforms into a single solution.
Securing Data in Hybrid on-premise and Cloud Environments using Apache RangerDataWorks Summit
Companies are increasingly moving to the cloud to store and process data. One of the challenges companies have is in securing data across hybrid environments with easy way to centrally manage policies. In this session, we will talk through how companies can use Apache Ranger to protect access to data both in on-premise as well as in cloud environments. We will go into details into the challenges of hybrid environment and how Ranger can solve it. We will also talk through how companies can further enhance the security by leveraging Ranger to anonymize or tokenize data while moving into the cloud and de-anonymize dynamically using Apache Hive, Apache Spark or when accessing data from cloud storage systems. 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.
Background: Some early applications of Computer Vision in Retail arose from e-commerce use cases - but increasingly, it is being used in physical stores in a variety of new and exciting ways, such as:
● Optimizing merchandising execution, in-stocks and sell-thru
● Enhancing operational efficiencies, enable real-time customer engagement
● Enhancing loss prevention capabilities, response time
● Creating frictionless experiences for shoppers
Abstract: This talk will cover the use of Computer Vision in Retail, the implications to the broader Consumer Goods industry and share business drivers, use cases and benefits that are unfolding as an integral component in the remaking of an age-old industry.
We will also take a ‘peek under the hood’ of Computer Vision and Deep Learning, sharing technology design principles and skill set profiles to consider before starting your CV journey.
Deep learning has matured considerably in the past few years to produce human or superhuman abilities in a variety of computer vision paradigms. We will discuss ways to recognize these paradigms in retail settings, collect and organize data to create actionable outcomes with the new insights and applications that deep learning enables.
We will cover the basics of object detection, then move into the advanced processing of images describing the possible ways that a retail store of the near future could operate. Identifying various storefront situations by having a deep learning system attached to a camera stream. Such things as; identifying item stocks on shelves, a shelf in need of organization, or perhaps a wandering customer in need of assistance.
We will also cover how to use a computer vision system to automatically track customer purchases to enable a streamlined checkout process, and how deep learning can power plausible wardrobe suggestions based on what a customer is currently wearing or purchasing.
Finally, we will cover the various technologies that are powering these applications today. Deep learning tools for research and development. Production tools to distribute that intelligence to an entire inventory of all the cameras situation around a retail location. Tools for exploring and understanding the new data streams produced by the computer vision systems.
By the end of this talk, attendees should understand the impact Computer Vision and Deep Learning are having in the Consumer Goods industry, key use cases, techniques and key considerations leaders are exploring and implementing today.
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.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
