Creating member segmentations is one of the main functions of a marketing team at any Internet company. Marketing teams are constantly creating various member segments to tailor to the needs of marketing campaigns and these needs change frequently. Therefore there is a huge need for a self-service member segmentation platform that is easy to use and scalable to support large member data set. This presentation will go into the architecture of the LinkedIn Member Segmentation platform and how it leverages Hadoop technologies like Apache Pig, Apache Hive and enterprise data warehouse system like Teradata to provide a self-service way to create and manage member segmentations. In addition, it will also cover some of the interesting challenges and lessons learned from building this platform.

Shirshanka Das and Yael Garten describe how LinkedIn redesigned its data analytics ecosystem in the face of a significant product rewrite, covering the infrastructure changes that enable LinkedIn to roll out future product innovations with minimal downstream impact. Shirshanka and Yael explore the motivations and the building blocks for this reimagined data analytics ecosystem, the technical details of LinkedIn’s new client-side tracking infrastructure, its unified reporting platform, and its data virtualization layer on top of Hadoop and share lessons learned from data producers and consumers that are participating in this governance model. Along the way, they offer some anecdotal evidence during the rollout that validated some of their decisions and are also shaping the future roadmap of these efforts.

Hadoop comprises the core of LinkedIn’s data analytics infrastructure and runs a vast array of our data products, including People You May Know, Endorsements, and Recommendations. To schedule and run the Hadoop workflows that drive our data products, we rely on Azkaban, an open-source workflow manager developed and used at LinkedIn since 2009. Azkaban is designed to be scalable, reliable, and extensible, and features a beautiful and intuitive UI. Over the years, we have seen tremendous growth, both in the scale of our data and our Hadoop user base, which includes over a thousand developers, data scientists, and analysts. We evolved Azkaban to not only meet the demands of this scale, but also support query platforms including Pig and Hive and continue to be an easy to use, self-service platform. In this talk, we discuss how Azkaban’s monitoring and visualization features allow our users to quickly and easily develop, profile, and tune their Hadoop workflows.
