Title: Accelerating Hadoop Projects with the Cask Data Application Platform

Abstract:
The Cask Data Application Platform (CDAP) ( http://cdap.io ­) is an open source, integrated, distributed, and extensible platform for quickly building, deploying, and managing Hadoop solutions (such as ETL, IoT, analytics applications, and closed loop applications). Its built-in capabilities for data ingestion, building complex data access patterns on various storage systems and the mixing of different processing paradigms, lets developers and data scientists be productive building solutions in minutes. It supports high-level concepts and abstractions that hide infrastructure complexity and enable reusability. CDAP provides greater reliability and predictability to Hadoop solutions with testing frameworks and developer/devops tools.
