Hadoop User Group UK:Hadoop in Context
Hadoop in Context
Although introduced initially for research into a large document clustering
problem, Hadoop (and it's related sub-projects) now forms a significant part
of our infrastructure that has let us more than quadruple our data volumes
within a year whilst putting the majority of data into the hands of analysts
before 9:00am.
This talk will tell the story of our adoption of Hadoop from our initial
in-house virtualised cluster and EC2 experiment to our current dedicated
cluster, the migration from our more traditional RDBMS data warehouse to
Hive, and how we've developed tools and infrastructure to integrate Hadoop
with the rest of our systems and help put the data in the hands of our
analysts.
