Description:

Big Data contains undeniable value but Hadoop's batch legacy limits its ability to make big data actionable for low latency enterprise analytics. Faster hardware and enterprise software to the rescue: EMC DSSD & Cloudera have collaborated to couple the world's fastest rack-scale flash array and the most popular open-source Hadoop distribution to redefine Hadoop for real-time and enterprise analytics. Simply dropping in faster media wasn't enough, though; our collaboration also involved building new capacities for Hadoop to take full advantage of flash performance speed and build a flexible architecture for next-generation, real-time applications.

This webcast will:

• Discuss the technical innovations and techniques used to accelerate Apache HBase's performance by orders of magnitude
• Highlight the core use cases for high performance big data analytics.
