Savanna: Elastic Hadoop on OpenStack

Speaker: Jay Vyas, Big Data Engineer, Red Hat

This talk is about provisioning and managing Hadoop clusters on OpenStack using Savanna project. Savanna supports two key use cases: on-demand cluster provisioning and on-demand Hadoop tasks execution (Elastic Data Processing). This presentation will be focused around EDP functionality.

Jay will give an introduction to the Savanna project, review recent features and talk about further plans. In this demo, we'll show how users can execute Hadoop jobs in one click on data stored in Swift using pre-configured Hadoop cluster template.
