2. ‣What is Big Data?
‣The Big Data and Apache Hadoop environment
‣Big Data Analytics
‣SQL Server in the Big Data world
‣Microsoft + Hortonworks (Yahoo!) = HDInsights
What we’ll (try) to cover today

3. Big Data 101
‣ 3 V’s
‣ Volume – Terabyte records, transactions, tables, files
‣ Velocity – Batch, near-time, real-time (analytics), streams.
‣ Variety – Structures, unstructured, semi-structured, and all the above in a mix
‣ Text Processing
‣ Techniques for processing and analyzing unstructured (and structured) LARGE files
‣ Analytics & Insights
‣ Distributed File System & Programming
4. ‣ Batch Processing
‣ Commodity Hardware
‣ Data Locality, no shared storage
‣ Scales linearly
‣ Great for large text file processing, not so great on small files
‣ Distributed programming paradigm
6. ‣ Big Data ≠ NoSQL
‣ NoSQL has similar Internet-scale Web origins of Hadoop stack (Yahoo!,
Google, Facebook, et al) but not the same thing
‣ Facebook, for example, uses Hbase from the Hadoop stack
‣ Big Data ≠ Real Time
‣ Big Data is primarily about batch processing huge files in a distributed manner
and analyzing data that was otherwise too complex to provide value
‣ Use in-memory analytics for real time insights
‣ Big Data ≠ Data Warehouse
‣ I still refer to large multi-TB DWs as “VLDB”
‣ Big Data is about crunching stats in text files for discovery of new patterns and
insights
‣ Use the DW to aggregate and store the summaries of those calculations for
reporting
Mark’s Big Data Myths
8. using Microsoft.Hadoop.MapReduce;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
public class TotalHitsForPageMap : MapperBase
{
public override void Map(string inputLine, MapperContext context)
{
context.Log(inputLine);
var parts = Regex.Split(inputLine, "s+");
if (parts.Length != expected) //only take records with all values
{
return;
}
context.EmitKeyValue(parts[pagePos], hit);
}
}
MapReduce Framework (Map)
9. public class TotalHitsForPageReducerCombiner : ReducerCombinerBase
{
public override void Reduce(string key, IEnumerable<string> values, ReducerCombinerContext
context)
{
context.EmitKeyValue(key, values.Sum(e=>long.Parse(e)).ToString());
}
}
public class TotalHitsJob : HadoopJob<TotalHitsForPageMap,TotalHitsForPageReducerCombiner>
{
public override HadoopJobConfiguration Configure(ExecutorContext context)
{
var retVal = new HadoopJobConfiguration();
retVal.InputPath = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("W3C_INPUT");
retVal.OutputFolder = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("W3C_OUTPUT");
retVal.DeleteOutputFolder = true;
return retVal;
}
}
MapReduce Framework (Reduce & Job)
10. ‣ Linux shell commands to access data in HDFS
‣ Put file in HDFS: hadoop fs -put sales.csv /import/sales.csv
‣ List files in HDFS:
‣ c:Hadoop>hadoop fs -ls /import
Found 1 items
-rw-r--r-- 1 makromer supergroup 114 2013-05-07 12:11 /import/sales.csv
‣ View file in HDFS:
c:Hadoop>hadoop fs -cat /import/sales.csv

‣ Now, we can work on the data with MapReduce, Hive, Pig, etc.
Get Data into Hadoop
11. create external table ext_sales
(
lastname string,
productid int,
quantity int,
sales_amount float
)
row format delimited fields terminated by ',' stored as
textfile location '/user/makromer/hiveext/input';
LOAD DATA INPATH '/user/makromer/import/sales.csv' OVERWRITE
INTO TABLE ext_sales;
Use Hive for Data Schema and Analysis
12. ‣ sqoop import –connect jdbc:sqlserver://localhost –username sqoop -password
password –table customers -m 1
‣ > hadoop fs -cat /user/mark/customers/part-m-00000
‣ > 5,Bob Smith
‣ sqoop export –connect jdbc:sqlserver://localhost –username sqoop -password
password -m 1 –table customers –export-dir /user/mark/data/employees3
‣ 12/11/11 22:19:24 INFO mapreduce.ExportJobBase: Transferred 201 bytes in
32.6364 seconds (6.1588 bytes/sec)
‣ 12/11/11 22:19:24 INFO mapreduce.ExportJobBase: Exported 4 records.
Sqoop
Data transfer to & from Hadoop & SQL Server
13. SQL Server Big Data – Data Loading
Amazon HDFS & EMR Data Loading
Amazon S3 Bucket
14. Role of NoSQL in a Big Data Analytics Solution
‣ Use NoSQL to store data quickly without the overhead of RDBMS
‣ Hbase, Plain Old HDFS, Cassandra, MongoDB, Dynamo, just to name a few
‣ Why NoSQL?
‣ In the world of “Big Data”
‣ “Schema later”
‣ Ignore ACID properties
‣ Drop data into key-value store quick & dirty
‣ Worry about query & read later
‣ Why NOT NoSQL?
‣ In the world of Big Data Analytics, you will need support from analytical tools with a
SQL, SAS, MR interface
‣ SQL Server and NoSQL
‣ Not a natural fit
‣ Use HDFS or your favorite NoSQL database
‣ Consider turning off SQL Server locking mechanisms
‣ Focus on writes, not reads (read uncommitted)
15. ‣ SQL Server Database
‣ SQL 2012 Enterprise Edition
‣ Page Compression
‣ 2012 Columnar Compression on Fact Tables
‣ Clustered Index on all tables
‣ Auto-update Stats Asynch
‣ Partition Fact Tables by month and archive data with sliding window technique
‣ Drop all indexes before nightly ETL load jobs
‣ Rebuild all indexes when ETL completes
‣ SQL Server Analysis Services
‣ SSAS 2012 Enterprise Edition
‣ 2008 R2 OLAP cubes partition-aligned with DW
‣ 2012 cubes in-memory tabular cubes
‣ All access through MSMDPUMP or SharePoint

21. Data Movement to the Cloud
‣Use Windows Azure Blob Storage
• Already stored in 3 copies
• Hadoop can read from Azure blob storage
• Allows you to upload while using no Hadoop network or CPU resources
‣Compress files
• Hadoop can read Gzip
• Uses less network resources than uncompressed
• Costs less for direct storage costs
• Compress directories where source files are created as well.

22. ‣ What is a Big Data approach to Analytics?
‣ Massive scale
‣ Data discovery & research
‣ Self-service
‣ Reporting & BI
‣ Why do we take this Big Data Analytics approach?
‣ TBs of change data in each subject area
‣ The data in the sources are variable and unstructured
‣ SSIS ETL alone couldn’t keep up or handle complexity
‣ SQL Server 2012 columnstore and tabular SSAS 2012 are key to using SQL
Server for Big Data
‣ With the configs mentioned previously, SQL Server works great
‣ Analytics on Big Data also requires Big Data Analytics tools
‣ Aster, Tableau, PowerPivot, SAS, Parallel Data Warehouse
