Apache Spark now comes with all the tools, libraries and connectors required to build a complete end-to-end data platform. There is a lot of documentation, blogs, examples, books and web sites, covering Spark core and its component libraries, but there are few resources on how to integrate these components to build a complete end-to-end solution.
The Lambda Architecture (LA), being fault-tolerant against hardware failures and human errors, enables developers to build large-scale, distributed data processing systems in a flexible and extensible manner. In this talk Think Reactive co-founder Deenar Toraskar will walk you through building a stream analytics engine using Spark and the Lambda architecture.
The talk will cover building all three layers using Spark, each coming with its own set of requirements: i) the BATCH layer, managing the master dataset (an immutable, append-only set of raw data) and pre-computing batch views, ii) the SERVING layer, indexing batch views so that they can be queried in a low-latency, ad-hoc way, and iii) the SPEED layer, dealing with recent data only, and compensating for the high latency of the batch layer. The talk would be accompanied by a real world example with code and a live demo.
A tutorial style talk, this event will be valuable for developers, architects, or project leads who already know about Spark and are now looking for more insight into how it can be leveraged to implement real-world applications.
