TITLE 1: "Hadoop: Distributed Data Processing"
Hadoop is an open-source distributed platform designed to economically store and process data using clustered commodity hardware. Hadoop is Apache's implementation of the MapReduce/GFS frameworks popularized by Google. In this talk we will demystify this powerful platform, and describe how it enables you to consolidate many different data storage and processing needs in an economically scalable cloud resource.
TITLE 2: "Facebook's Petabyte Scale Data Warehouse Using Hive and Hadoop"
Hive is an open source, peta-byte scale date warehousing framework built on top of Hadoop that enables scalable analytics on large data sets using SQL and some language extensions. Scalable analysis on large data sets has been core to the functions of a number of teams at Facebook - both engineering and non-engineering. This talk will highlight how Hive and Hadoop allow us at Facebook to offer a cheap, scalable and flexible infrastructure to do different kinds of analysis. We will talk about the architecture, applications and capabilities of this infrastructure which handles close to 8000 jobs a day and stores nearly 2.5PB of compressed data.
