Abstract:
The talk will be a description of how MapR’s architectural advances allow significant improvements in speed, reliability and scalability over stock Hadoop. This will include a dive into the MapR file system and a discussion of how the map-reduce layer has been changed and the impact on other Hadoop eco-system components. This will include actual test results.
In the second section of my talk, I will describe how this new architecture has surprising consequences. In particular, I will show how tasks like machine learning, data visualization and search indexing can all work better on the MapR platform.

Great location! Thank You Dell! Solid presentation by a very knowledgeable presenter. Good food. Friendly folks.
However, The conversation was dominated by the front left corner of the room, which worked for me because I had court-side seats. However the folks who struggled through traffic to get to meetup and sat in back may have felt left out. Suggestion: the Question Kreew sits in the middle or in the back and draws the speaker and discussion out. Load Balance and Through-put.
Looking forward to the next.
