SnappyData - Real Time Operational Analytics with Apache Spark!

Description

Apache Spark has come a long ways since it began as a faster batch oriented map-reduce solution for Hadoop. With support for streaming, machine learning and most recently SQL, Spark aspires to become a player in the realm of real time analytics at scale.

However, much of its underpinnings remain batch oriented and unsuited for highly concurrent OLAP workloads.

In this talk, we will describe how we are innovating and renovating Spark's core underpinnings to make it suitable for real time operational analytics, helping create a unified platform that supports row and column data, high concurrency and approximate query processing at scale.
