Title: Managing Hadoop Workflows in the Enterprise

Presenters: Amit Cohen, Joe Goldberg

Abstract:

No matter how real-time or streaming you think your Hadoop applications are or will be, batch workflows are as important in the Big Data landscape as they have been in “traditional” IT where industry analysts say batch accounts for almost 70% of all business processing.

Especially now, as Hadoop is going “mainstream” and is destined to make a big impact on IT and the Data Center, companies are looking for solutions that will help them develop and deploy their batch workflows faster, provide support for “traditional” applications and technologies like file transfer, ETL tools and even mainframes and help them deliver Big Data “services” that will be easy to manage for IT and easy to consume for business users.

Amit and Joe will discuss how a Hadoop-aware workload automation solution can accelerate creation of Big Data applications, simplify testing and deployment of such applications, enable organizations to better operate those applications to deliver superior service quality and provide organizations the flexibility to respond more rapidly to new Big Data demands.
