AGENDA

Session 1: SQL in Hadoop – the real deal

Speaker: Emma McGrattan, SVP Engineering @ Actian

Description: Can you use full SQL language in Hadoop without limitations? Can you run SQL on the freshest Hadoop data without moving data out into another database every time you want to run a query? The answer is a resounding Yes. Unlike many solutions that promise SQL access in Hadoop but don’t deliver, this session will showcase a solution where users can benefit from enterprise-ready, scalable SQL access to data in Hadoop. Furthermore, we’ll talk about adding trickle update support on HDFS - a file system designed for data to be written once and read ever after. The addition of trickle-update support on Hadoop will mean that traditional OLTP workloads can be run natively on Hadoop without having to pull the data into a traditional RDBMS.

Session 2: How do I secure my entire Hadoop cluster?

Speaker: Olivier Renault @ Hortonworks

Description: Olivier from Hortonworks will introduce Apache Argus a framework to enable, monitor and manage comprehensive data security across the Hadoop platform.
Data security within Hadoop has evolved to support multiple use cases for data access, while also providing a framework for central administration of security policies and monitoring of user access. With the advent of Apache YARN and Argus, the Hadoop platform can now support a true secure data lake architecture.

Session 3: SUSE, Hadoop and Big Data Update

Speaker: Stephen Mogg, SUSE UK

Description: This session will give you an update on what SUSE is up to in the Big Data arena. We will take a brief look at SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and why it makes the perfect foundation for your Hadoop Deployment.
