BUT ….
- Building big data infrastructures is no easy task. -
Leveraging data for decision making requires a mix of multiples skills : . System Engineering . Distributed computing . Statistics . Machine Learning
Solutions …. - Build Data platforms as a service. -
Build robust and consistent APIs to bring big data to the masses. - Leverages fluent APIs for fast data science
None
Big Data is not just about throwing data to Hadoop.
It’s also about data pipelines
Data Sources
Data Sources
Data Sources - High Throughput distributed mssaging platform - Publish
Subscribe Model - Modelled as a distributed replicated log - Persists messages to disk - Categorizes messages into Topics - Allows message retention for long specified amount of time - Allows stream replay in case of failure
Data Sources Machine Learning High Latency Batch Apps Real Time
Processing
How do you build an API around that?
None
/ingest REST API
/ingest
/ingest /query /trainModel /process
Things to be careful with - Multitenancy (Yarn, Mesos, Docker…)
- Job Scheduling - Security - Serialisation : ProtoBuf, Thrift, Avro - Storage Format : Optimize queries with columnar storage. - Compression : LZO, Snappy

Challenges of Predictive APIs
http://www.r-bloggers.com/data-science-toolbox-survey-results-surprise-r-and-python-win/
Modeling and Prediction are just a small part of the
process
- Data locality and data gravity - Support the full
workflow - Verticalization of platforms - Scalability - Collaboration and interoperability - Black boxing of implementations
