The Fifth Elephant 2012

Finding the elephant in the data.

What are your users doing on your website or in your store? How do you turn the piles of data your organization generates into actionable information? Where do you get complementary data to make yours more comprehensive? What tech, and what techniques?

The Fifth Elephant is a two day conference on big data.

Early Geek tickets are available from fifthelephant.doattend.com.

The proposal funnel below will enable you to submit a session and vote on proposed sessions. It is a good practice introduce yourself and share details about your work as well as the subject of your talk while proposing a session.

Each community member can vote for or against a talk. A vote from each member of the Editorial Panel is equivalent to two community votes. Both types of votes will be considered for final speaker selection.

It’s useful to keep a few guidelines in mind while submitting proposals:

  1. Describe how to use something that is available under a liberal open source license. Participants can use this without having to pay you anything.

  2. Tell a story of how you did something. If it involves commercial tools, please explain why they made sense.

  3. Buy a slot to pitch whatever commercial tool you are backing.

Speakers will get a free ticket to both days of the event. Proposers whose talks are not on the final schedule will be able to purchase tickets at the Early Geek price of Rs. 1800.

Real Time Analytics with Twitter Storm

Submitted Apr 26, 2012

Perform Real time analysis of the data that is coming into your System from multiple sources. I’ll talk about Different Use Cases from a Performance Monitoring Standpoint, and a little bit on Data Visualization.

Outline

Real Time Analytics is a different problem, when compared to batch systems like Hadoop. This talk will focus on how you can use Twitter Storm in performing Analytics in near realtime.

We’ll build a simple Real User Monitoring System during the course of the talk.

Towards the end of the session I’ll talk about how you can also visualize this data.

Requirements

Understanding on different Use Cases when you might want to use a Real time system. In my eyes they are Perf. Monitoring, Operations, Key Business Metrics etc..
