Apache Impala // IoT Data Analytics - Hype or Truly Transformative

Apache Impala:

Apache Impala (Incubating) raises the bar for SQL query performance on Apache Hadoop while retaining a familiar user experience. With Impala, you can query data, whether stored in HDFS, Apache Kudu or Apache HBase – including SELECT, JOIN, and aggregate functions – in real time. In this session Ryan will do a deep dive into Impala internals including architecture, query planning, and query execution.

IoT Data Analytics - Hype or Truly Transformative:

The Internet of Things has the potential to be one of the biggest technological revolutions in the recent ages, enabling businesses to work smarter, faster and more profitably. However IoT data represents a different paradigm for Enterprises as the inherent characteristics of data generated from IoT and connected devices will challenge traditional data management approaches and methodologies. Some of the key characteristics of the IoT data include: Diverse data structures & schemas based on the sources; volumes of intermittent data streams – predominantly time-series data from varied data sources; and multi-modal data acquisition with streaming, batch, and request-response methods. In this session, Dave will discuss the data management value chain and logical architecture for IoT.
