Automating Big Data with the Hadoop Agent
Dave Kellermanns
Chief Automation Architect

Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion (18 zeroes !) bytes of data
So much that 90% of the data in the world today has been created in the
last two years alone. This data comes from everywhere: sensors used to
gather climate information, posts to social media sites, digital pictures and videos,
purchase transaction records, and cell phone GPS signals to name a few. This is
called “Internet of the Things”. Connect all together. But the data is called
BIG DATA
What is Big Data ?

Think you can avoid Big Data?
The Big Data technology and services market represents
a fast-growing multibillion-dollar worldwide opportunity [...]
that will grow at a 26.4% compound annual growth rate to
$41.5 billion through 2018, or about six times the growth
rate of the overall information technology market […]
IDC - 2015

• Make better, more quantitative decisions
• Reach new levels of profits, efficiently
• Predict with unprecedented accuracy to influence
business outcomes
• Deliver highly personalized customer experiences at
massive scale
• Make new discoveries using massive amounts of data
• Recognize new revenue streams from digital exhaust
Why are companies focused right now on Big Data ?

Where does Big Data fit into the Enterprise?

• Big data technologies must be integrated with
more traditional data systems and sources
• Efficient Dev-Test-Prod change control needs to
be implemented end-to-end
• Administration, development, operations, and
analytics must all need tools tailored to their roles
to maximize
• Automation is a core requirement for making
these complex systems accessible. It has to be
easy to use and customizable

Automic helps to bridge the gap between the skillsets of the people
who need the tool and the skillsets required to run the tool
People wanting data

Hadoop Open Source
“The Apache™ Hadoop® project develops open-source software for
reliable, scalable, distributed computing.”
“Open source as a development model promotes a universal access via a
free license to a product's design or blueprint, and universal redistribution
of that design or blueprint, including subsequent improvements to it by
anyone”

Proven Value for Data Automation
Self-service
platform for
data scientists
We use Automic in our data center to define dependencies
between various jobs between our data center and the
cloud, and run them as ‘process flows’.
Automic ensures that the right data is delivered on time to
Data Scientists. This requires approximately 6,000 jobs per
day.

eBay relies on Automic
If Automic goes down eBay loses 70% of their web traffic to Amazon
– Automic automates Hadoop for eBay which provides all of their business
intelligence for optimized SEO
– Automic moves data, schedules the map
reduce, schedules the analytics and then
pushes the output to Google

Automic’s Value to Big Data
• We help our customers to get out of the scripting business by abstracting the APIs from the
user by using Hadoop templates
• Current functionality can be extended by Automic and Users alike and in turn distributed via
Automic’s Marketplace, so there is no need to wait for vendors to catch up and release a
new Agent for new APIs (think Falcon, Ranger, Knox, Ambari, Cloudbreak, etc.)
• Automic and it’s Objects are agnostic – templates work with Hortonworks, Cloudera, MapR
– they can even help you transition between Hadoop distributions
