Data Masters and Big Data Folk!

This meetup is proudly sponsored by Pivotal, Thursday February 11th, 2016 (6.30pm) at Donkey Wheel House (Depot room), 673 Bourke Street in Melbourne.

Topic of the Night – ‘SQL and Machine Learning on Hadoop using HAWQ' by Pivotal (Mukund Babbar is a Senior Field Engineer at Pivotal).

Sponsor of the night is our friends at Pivotal, their 1st sponsorship (look fwd to many more to come) on all things big data with a side of pizza & beer on Thursday February 11th.

Synopsis

Hear about the newly open source massively-parallel processing SQL engine for Hadoop.'

The growing Apache ecosystem just got bigger and better -- now with the ability to crunch vast volumes of data using fully ANSI-compliant SQL and at-scale machine learning algorithms.

Apache HAWQ has been years in the making and derives its heritage from Greenplum Database and PostgreSQL. HAWQ enables developers, analysts, data scientists and engineers to run advanced SQL queries, transforming data sets of extreme size, visualising data with standard tools, and seamlessly running R and Python in a highly-distributed fashion all in the same environment. Invoke powerful machine learning and advanced statistical functions using Apache MADlib, and build models on billions of rows of data.
