Talks

Guider: a Compass for Uncharted Data Oceans by Philippe Cudre-Mauroux (https://www.linkedin.com/in/p-c-m)

In this talk, I introduce Dependency-Driven Analytics (DDA), a new class of data analytics designed to cope with growing volumes of unstructured data. DDA drastically reduces the cognitive burden of data analysis by systematically leveraging a compact dependency graph derived from the raw data. We built a system supporting DDA using off-the-shelf Big Data and graph DB technologies (including Logstash and Neo4J), and deployed it in production to support the analysis of the exhaust of Big Data clusters of tens of thousands of machines. The dependency graph in this setting captures lineage information among jobs and files and is used for guiding the analysis of telemetry data, for job auditing and compliance, and for automated SLO extraction of recurring tasks.

Beats Roundtable by Nicolas Ruflin (https://ch.linkedin.com/in/ruflin)

The Beats goes on session will be split in three parts: The first part will give an overview over what Beats (https://www.elastic.co/fr/products/beats) actually is and what you can do with it. The second part will be a technical demo on how to run Beats and to work with the dashboards. In the end the stage is open for all deep dive beats related question which (hopefully) can be answered by @ruflin (https://twitter.com/ruflin), one of the Beats creators.
