Storm• Apache Storm is a distributed, fault-tolerant, open-source computation system

that allows you to process data in real-time with Hadoop.• Apache Storm on HDInsight allows you to create distributed, real-time

analytics solutions in the Azure environment by using Apache Hadoop.• Storm solutions can also provide guaranteed processing of data, with the

ability to replay data that was not successfully processed the first time.• Ability to write Storm components in C#, JAVA and Python.• Azure Scale up or Scale down without an impact for running Storm topologies.• Ease of provision and use in Azure portal.• Visual Studio project templates for Storm apps

Storm• Apache Storm apps are submitted as Topologies.• A topology is a graph of computation that processes streams• Stream: An unbound collection of tuples. Streams are produced by spouts

and bolts, and they are consumed by bolts.• Tuple: A named list of dynamically typed values.• Spout: Consumes data from a data source and emits one or more streams.• Bolt: Consumes streams, performs processing on tuples, and may emit

streams. Bolts are also responsible for writing data to external storage, such as a queue, HDInsight, HBase, a blob, or other data store.• Nimbus: JobTracker in Hadoop that distribute jobs, monitoring failures.

HBase• Apache HBase is an open-source, NoSQL database that is built on Hadoop and

modeled after Google BigTable.

• HBase provides random access and strong consistency for large amounts of unstructured and semistructured data in a schemaless database organized by column families

• Data is stored in the rows of a table, and data within a row is grouped by column family. • The open-source code scales linearly to handle petabytes of data on thousands of

nodes. It can rely on data redundancy, batch processing, and other features that are provided by distributed applications in the Hadoop ecosystem.

HBase• HBase Commands:

• create Equivalent to create table in T-SQL• get Equivalent to select statements in T-SQL• put Equivalent to update, Insert statement in T-SQL• scan Equivalent to select (no where condition) in T-SQL • delete/deleteall Equivalent to delete in T-SQL

• HBase shell is your query tool to execute in CRUD commands to a HBase cluster.• Data can also be managed using the HBase C# API, which provides a client library on

top of the HBase REST API. • An HBase database can also be queried by using Hive.

Hive• Apache Hive is a data warehouse system for Hadoop, which enables data

summarization, querying, and analysis of data by using HiveQL (a query language similar to SQL).

• Hive understands how to work with structured and semi-structured data, such as text files where the fields are delimited by specific characters.• Hive also supports custom serializer/deserializers for complex or irregularly

structured data. • Hive can also be extended through user-defined functions (UDF).• A UDF allows you to implement functionality or logic that isn't easily modeled in

HiveQL.

HiveQL# Number of RecordsSELECT COUNT(1) FROM www_access;

# Number of Unique IPsSELECT COUNT(1) FROM ( \ SELECT DISTINCT ip FROM www_access \) t;

# Number of Unique IPs that Accessed the Top PageSELECT COUNT(distinct ip) FROM www_access \ WHERE url='/';

# Number of Accesses per Unique IPSELECT ip, COUNT(1) FROM www_access \ GROUP BY ip LIMIT 30;

# Unique IPs Sorted by Number of AccessesSELECT ip, COUNT(1) AS cnt FROM www_access \ GROUP BY ip ORDER BY cnt DESC LIMIT 30;

# Number of Accesses After a Certain TimeSELECT COUNT(1) FROM www_access \ WHERE TD_TIME_RANGE(time, "2011-08-19", NULL, "PDT")

# Number of Accesses Each DaySELECT \ TD_TIME_FORMAT(time, "yyyy-MM-dd", "PDT") AS day, \ COUNT(1) AS cnt \FROM www_access \GROUP BY TD_TIME_FORMAT(time, "yyyy-MM-dd", "PDT")

Apache Spark• Interactive manipulation and visualization of data

• Scala, Python, and R Interactive Shells• Jupyter Notebook with PySpark (Python) and Spark (Scala) kernels provide in-

browser interaction

• Unified platform for processing multiple workloads• Real-time processing, Machine Learning, Stream Analytics, Interactive Querying,

Graphing

• Leverages in-memory processing for really big data• Resilient distributed datasets (RDDs)• APIs for processing large datasets• Up to 100x faster than MapReduce

Spark Components on HDInsight• Spark Core• Includes Spark SQL, Spark Streaming,

GraphX, and MLlib

• Anaconda• Livy• Jupyter Notebooks• ODBC Driver for connecting from BI tools

(Power BI, Tableau)

Jupyter Notebooks on HDInsight• Browser-based interface for working with text, code, equations, plots,

graphics, and interactive controls in a single document.• Include preset Spark and Hive contexts (sc and sqlContext)

Demo

Items of Note About HDInsight• There is no “suspend” on HDInsight clusters• Provision the cluster, do work, then delete the cluster to avoid unnecessary

charges• Storage can be decoupled from the cluster and reused across deployments

• Can deploy from the portal, but often scripted in practice• Easier/repeatable creation and deletion
