Realtime Detection of DDOS attacks using Apache Spark and MLLib

In this talk we will show how Hadoop Ecosystem tools like Apache Kafka, Spark, and MLLib can be used in various real-time architectures and how they can be used to perform real-time detection of a DDOS attack. We will explain some of the challenges in building real-time architectures, followed by walking through the DDOS detection example and a live demo. This talk is appropriate for anyone interested in Security, IoT, Apache Kafka, Spark, or Hadoop.

Presenter Ryan Bosshart is a Systems Engineer at Cloudera and is the first 3 time presenter at BigDataMadison!

Two additional notes:
