Introduction to HDInsight (Hadoop)

Snacks: This event is sponsored by Microsoft Canada

This is the fourth and last event in the series about Azure Internet of Things Services. Sergii has already delivered three events on Azure IoT Hub, Analytics Services and Power BI.

Abstract:
Data is rapidly growing. We're dealing with data of all shapes and sizes being generated faster than ever before. Apache Hadoop is a platform that has emerged to help extract insight from all that data. In this session, you will learn the basics of Hadoop, how to get up and running with Hadoop in the cloud, and how to use Java, C# and F# to write Hadoop jobs and work with other parts of the Hadoop platform. No previous experience with Hadoop is required!
