Day-1: Session-2 : Introduction to Big Data-1
- Main characteristics of Big Data: volume, variety, velocity, and veracity. MPP architecture for volume.
- Data Warehouses – static schema, slowly evolving dataset
- MPP Databases like Greenplum, Exadata, Teradata, Netezza, Vertica, etc.
- Hadoop Based Solutions – no restrictions on dataset structure.
- Typical pattern: HDFS, MapReduce (crunch), retrieve from HDFS
- Batch - suited for analytical/non-interactive tasks
- Volume: CEP streaming data
- Typical choices – CEP products (e.g., Infostreams, Apama, MarkLogic, etc.)
- Less production-ready – Storm/S4
- NoSQL Databases – (columnar and key-value): Best suited as an analytical adjunct to a data warehouse/database

Varieties of Data: Introduction to Data Cleaning issues in Big Data
- RDBMS – static structure/schema, does not promote an agile, exploratory environment.
- NoSQL – semi-structured; has enough structure to store data without an exact schema beforehand.
- Data cleaning issues
Day-1 : Session-4 : Big Data Introduction-3 : Hadoop
- When to select Hadoop?
- STRUCTURED - Enterprise data warehouses/databases can store massive data (at a cost) but impose structure (not ideal for active exploration)
- SEMI-STRUCTURED data – challenging to handle with traditional solutions (DW/DB)
- Warehousing data = HUGE effort and remains static even after implementation
- For variety & volume of data, crunched on commodity hardware – HADOOP
- Commodity H/W needed to create a Hadoop Cluster
Introduction to Map Reduce /HDFS
- MapReduce – distribute computing over multiple servers
- HDFS – make data available locally for the computing process (with redundancy)
- Data – can be unstructured/schema-less (unlike RDBMS)
- Developer responsibility to make sense of data
- Programming MapReduce = working with Java (pros/cons), manually loading data into HDFS
Day-2: Session-1: Big Data Ecosystem-Building Big Data ETL: Universe of Big Data Tools-which one to use and when?
- Hadoop vs. Other NoSQL solutions
- For interactive, random access to data
- Hbase (column-oriented database) on top of Hadoop
- Random access to data but with imposed restrictions (max 1 PB)
- Not ideal for ad-hoc analytics; good for logging, counting, time-series
- Sqoop - Import from databases to Hive or HDFS (JDBC/ODBC access)
- Flume – Stream data (e.g., log data) into HDFS
Day-2: Session-2: Big Data Management System
