The blind men and the elephant: Reducing risk with Hadoop visibility - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Hadoop is a wonderfully useful tool that can drive insight into a range of problems, but administrators can be blind to performance, utilization and cost issues of cluster deployments. There’s risk in sizing initial deployments properly, as well as determining optimal capacity over time. Without sufficient visibility, job performance can suffer and costs can escalate. Keeping a critical resource running effectively and being able to plan for the future requires intelligent decision making capabilities that many Hadoop deployments lack. This webinar will look into common problems that affect clusters and ways to detect issues early and head off long term problems. We’ll dig into capacity management and ways to deal with ever increasing demands for Hadoop resources. Key points: • Understand initial deployment challenges • Handling cluster growth • Working to meet increasing pressure on storage and job density • Planning for capacity growth and extension to cloud
