Hadoop Operations for Production Systems

This meetup is different location and on a different day of the week! When you arrive, please use the lower level entrance behind the building.

Abstract: Hadoop is emerging as the standard for big data processing and analytics. However, as usage of the Hadoop clusters grow, so do the demands of managing and monitoring these systems. In this talk, you’ll get an overview of all aspects of successfully managing Hadoop clusters—from installation to configuration management, service monitoring, troubleshooting, and support integration — with an emphasis on production systems. You’ll hear about tooling capabilities, lessons learned, and best practices from users who depend on Hadoop as a business-critical system.
