Big Data Analytics with Spark
Abstract
I will explain the challenges of current Big Data engines ( in particular Apache Spark ) integration with object stores, what are the issues and their origin. I will discuss what can be done to make this integration more efficient and remove barriers of some algorithms. I will present Stocator, an open source (Apache License 2.0) object store connector for Hadoop and Apache Spark specifically designed to optimize their performance with object stores.
