Overview of this book

Apache Hadoop is the most popular platform for big data processing, and can be combined with a host of other big data tools to build powerful analytics solutions. Big Data Analytics with Hadoop 3 shows you how to do just that, by providing insights into the software as well as its benefits with the help of practical examples. Once you have taken a tour of Hadoop 3’s latest features, you will get an overview of HDFS, MapReduce, and YARN, and how they enable faster, more efficient big data processing. You will then move on to learning how to integrate Hadoop with the open source tools, such as Python and R, to analyze and visualize data and perform statistical computing on big data. As you get acquainted with all this, you will explore how to use Hadoop 3 with Apache Spark and Apache Flink for real-time data analytics and stream processing. In addition to this, you will understand how to use Hadoop to build analytics solutions on the cloud and an end-to-end pipeline to perform big data analysis using practical use cases. By the end of this book, you will be well-versed with the analytical capabilities of the Hadoop ecosystem. You will be able to build powerful solutions to perform big data analytics and get insight effortlessly.

Cloud characteristics


An IT environment requires a specific set of characteristics to enable the remote provisioning of scalable and measured IT resources in an effective manner. These characteristics need to exist to a meaningful extent for the IT environment to be considered an effective Cloud.

The following six specific characteristics are common to the majority of Cloud environments:

  • On-demand usage
  • Ubiquitous access
  • Multitenancy (and resource pooling)
  • Elasticity
  • Measured usage
  • Resiliency

On-demand usage

A Cloud consumer can unilaterally access Cloud-based IT resources, giving the Cloud consumer the freedom to self-provision these IT resources. Once configured, usage of the self-provisioned IT resources can be automated, reducing human involvement with the Cloud consumer or Cloud provider. This results in an on-demand usage environment. Also known as on-demand self-service usage, this characteristic enables the service-based and usage-driven features found in mainstream Clouds.

Ubiquitous access...
