Hadoop ELT Lab with Hive, Sqoop, Pig, HBase and Hue

In this meetup we will get our hands dirty by doing some basic ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) operations on a test Hadoop installation. Since Hortonworks informed us at the last meetup that this is what Hadoop is being used for in 95% of the cases, we thought it a good place to start.

Bring your laptop with an SSH client installed (e.g. putty for windows) and we'll have fun hadooping for a couple of hours.

The good people at Sopra Steria are sponsoring us with venue and pizza this time as well. Food will be served between 17:30 and 18:00, so if you cannot come before 18, you will only miss the culinary and not the spiritual part ☺
