The Fifth Elephant 2013

As more and more companies are embracing Big Data ( read as Hadoop for now) technologies, there are opportunities for companies and geeks to address the ‘GAPS’ by designing and implementing products on Hadoop platform.

Agenda:

1. Current Scenarios in Hadoop Analytics

2. List Down the GAPS

3. List Opportunities

4. Discuss in Detail - An Interactive BI Analytics tool Design

5. Q & A

Benefits :

     1. Interactive Analysis on Hadoop Data 

     2. Traditionarily BI tools are exorbitantly priced thus low TCO.

Outline

This talk will discuss current scenarios in hadoop analytics and the existing gaps. It will list down couple of product opportunities to fill these gaps. We will deep dive and discuss one such product design - Interactive Analytics tool for Hadoop with technical architecture and implementation strategies. Traditionally, processing on Hadoop (and so Analytics) is batch oriented as it has to go through MapReduce. We will discuss tools and technologies which go beyond MapReduce and will leverage them to build interactive Analytics tool so that the data residing in Hadoop cluster is available for interactive analysis for end users.
This talk will be a bit technical, But No! - You don’t have to know coding :-) as it will be in simple language. I am assuming to have 45 mins - 1hr slot for my talk. I would like to reserve good amount of time for Q&A. This is the outline , let me know in advance if you would like me to address any specific topic related to Hadoop Analytics.

Requirements

An understanding of Hadoop Eco Sytem (prefered) and Datawarehousing/Business Intelligence Concepts.
