Choosing an HDFS data storage format- Avro vs. Parquet and more - StampedeCon...StampedeCon
At the StampedeCon 2015 Big Data Conference: Picking your distribution and platform is just the first decision of many you need to make in order to create a successful data ecosystem. In addition to things like replication factor and node configuration, the choice of file format can have a profound impact on cluster performance. Each of the data formats have different strengths and weaknesses, depending on how you want to store and retrieve your data. For instance, we have observed performance differences on the order of 25x between Parquet and Plain Text files for certain workloads. However, it isn’t the case that one is always better than the others.

10 Things Learned Releasing Databricks Enterprise WideDatabricks
Implementing tools, let alone an entire Unified Data Platform, like Databricks, can be quite the undertaking. Implementing a tool which you have not yet learned all the ins and outs of can be even more frustrating. Have you ever wished that you could take some of that uncertainty away? Four years ago, Western Governors University (WGU) took on the task of rewriting all of our ETL pipelines in Scala/Python, as well as migrating our Enterprise Data Warehouse into Delta, all on the Databricks platform. Starting with 4 users and rapidly growing to over 120 users across 8 business units, our Databricks environment turned into an entire unified platform, being used by individuals of all skill levels, data requirements, and internal security requirements.
Through this process, our team has had the chance and opportunity to learn while making a lot of mistakes. Taking a look back at those mistakes, there are a lot of things we wish we had known before opening the platform to our enterprise.
We would like to share with you 10 things we wish we had known before WGU started operating in our Databricks environment. Covering topics surrounding user management from both an AWS and Databricks perspective, understanding and managing costs, creating custom pipelines for efficient code management, learning about new Apache Spark snippets that helped save us a fortune, and more. We would like to provide our recommendations on how one can overcome these pitfalls to help new, current and prospective users to make their environments easier, safer, and more reliable to work in.

In this talk, we will take a look at how we use Spark on our own Databricks platform throughout our data pipeline for use cases such as ETL, data warehousing, and real time analysis. We will demonstrate how these applications empower engineering and data analytics. We will also share some lessons learned from building our data pipeline around security and operations. This talk will include examples on how to use Structured Streaming (a.k.a Streaming DataFrames) for online analysis, SparkR for offline analysis, and how we connect multiple sources to achieve a Just-In-Time Data Warehouse.
This presentation describes how to efficiently load data into Hive. I cover partitioning, predicate pushdown, ORC file optimization and different loading schemes
The Heart of the Data Mesh Beats in Real-Time with Apache KafkaKai Wähner
If there were a buzzword of the hour, it would certainly be "data mesh"! This new architectural paradigm unlocks analytic data at scale and enables rapid access to an ever-growing number of distributed domain datasets for various usage scenarios.
As such, the data mesh addresses the most common weaknesses of the traditional centralized data lake or data platform architecture. And the heart of a data mesh infrastructure must be real-time, decoupled, reliable, and scalable.
This presentation explores how Apache Kafka, as an open and scalable decentralized real-time platform, can be the basis of a data mesh infrastructure and - complemented by many other data platforms like a data warehouse, data lake, and lakehouse - solve real business problems.
There is no silver bullet or single technology/product/cloud service for implementing a data mesh. The key outcome of a data mesh architecture is the ability to build data products; with the right tool for the job.
A good data mesh combines data streaming technology like Apache Kafka or Confluent Cloud with cloud-native data warehouse and data lake architectures from Snowflake, Databricks, Google BigQuery, et al.
Apache Iceberg: An Architectural Look Under the CoversScyllaDB
Data Lakes have been built with a desire to democratize data - to allow more and more people, tools, and applications to make use of data. A key capability needed to achieve it is hiding the complexity of underlying data structures and physical data storage from users. The de-facto standard has been the Hive table format addresses some of these problems but falls short at data, user, and application scale. So what is the answer? Apache Iceberg.
Apache Iceberg table format is now in use and contributed to by many leading tech companies like Netflix, Apple, Airbnb, LinkedIn, Dremio, Expedia, and AWS.
Watch Alex Merced, Developer Advocate at Dremio, as he describes the open architecture and performance-oriented capabilities of Apache Iceberg.
You will learn:
• The issues that arise when using the Hive table format at scale, and why we need a new table format
• How a straightforward, elegant change in table format structure has enormous positive effects
• The underlying architecture of an Apache Iceberg table, how a query against an Iceberg table works, and how the table’s underlying structure changes as CRUD operations are done on it
• The resulting benefits of this architectural design

SQL Performance Improvements at a Glance in Apache Spark 3.0Databricks
This talk explains how Spark 3.0 can improve the performance of SQL applications. Spark 3.0 provides many performance features such as dynamic partitioning and enhanced pushdown. Each of them can improve the performance of a different type of SQL application.
Parquet is a columnar storage format for Hadoop data. It was developed by Twitter and Cloudera to optimize storage and querying of large datasets. Parquet provides more efficient compression and I/O compared to traditional row-based formats by storing data by column. Early results show a 28% reduction in storage size and up to a 114% improvement in query performance versus the original Thrift format. Parquet supports complex nested schemas and can be used with Hadoop tools like Hive, Pig, and Impala.
The document discusses new features and enhancements in Apache Hive 3, including:
1) Materialized views which allow optimizing workloads and queries without changing SQL.
2) Improved ACID support which makes ACID transactions as fast as regular tables.
3) Enhancements to constraints, defaults, and surrogate keys which help the optimizer produce better plans and improve data integrity.
Impala is an open-source SQL query engine for Hadoop that is designed for performance. It utilizes standard Hadoop components like HDFS, HBase, and YARN. Impala allows users to issue SQL queries against data stored in HDFS and HBase and returns results very quickly. It exposes industry-standard interfaces that allow business intelligence tools to connect. Impala has added many new features in recent versions like analytic functions, subqueries, and support for joining and aggregating data that can spill to disk.
The document discusses Apache Kudu, an open source storage layer for Apache Hadoop that enables fast analytics on fast data. Kudu is designed to fill the gap between HDFS and HBase by providing fast analytics capabilities on fast-changing or frequently updated data. It achieves this through its scalable and fast tabular storage design that allows for both high insert/update throughput and fast scans/queries. The document provides an overview of Kudu's architecture and capabilities, examples of how to use its NoSQL and SQL APIs, and real-world use cases like enabling low-latency analytics pipelines for companies like Xiaomi.
Kudu is a storage engine for Hadoop designed to address gaps in Hadoop's ability to handle workloads that require both high-throughput data ingestion and low-latency random access. It is a columnar storage engine that uses a log-structured merge tree to store data and provides APIs for NoSQL and SQL access. Kudu aims to provide high performance for both scans and random access through its columnar design and tablet architecture that partitions data across servers.
The document discusses new features in Apache Hive 3 including the Data Analytics Studio, connectors to other data systems like Druid and Kafka, and SQL enhancements such as materialized views, constraints and defaults, and query result caching. It provides examples of how these new capabilities can optimize workloads, improve query performance, and enable more flexible data integration and analysis.
Apache Kudu (Incubating): New Hadoop Storage for Fast Analytics on Fast Data ...Cloudera, Inc.

- Kudu is a columnar storage engine that allows for both fast analytics queries as well as low-latency updates to the stored data.
- It addresses gaps in the existing Hadoop storage landscape by providing efficient scans, individual row lookups, and mutable data all within the same system.
- Kudu uses a master-tablet server architecture with tablets that are horizontally partitioned and replicated for fault tolerance. It supports SQL and NoSQL interfaces.
- Integrations with Spark, Impala and MapReduce allow it to be used for both
The document discusses new features and enhancements in Apache Hive 3.0 including:
1. Improved transactional capabilities with ACID v2 that provide faster performance compared to previous versions while also supporting non-bucketed tables and non-ORC formats.
2. New materialized view functionality that allows queries to be rewritten to improve performance by leveraging pre-computed results stored in materialized views.
3. Enhancements to LLAP workload management that improve query scheduling and enable better sharing of resources across users.
Apache Hive is a rapidly evolving project, many people are loved by the big data ecosystem. Hive continues to expand support for analytics, reporting, and bilateral queries, and the community is striving to improve support along with many other aspects and use cases. In this lecture, we introduce the latest and greatest features and optimization that appeared in this project last year. This includes benchmarks covering LLAP, Apache Druid's materialized views and integration, workload management, ACID improvements, using Hive in the cloud, and performance improvements. I will also tell you a little about what you can expect in the future.
Introduction to Kudu - StampedeCon 2016StampedeCon
Over the past several years, the Hadoop ecosystem has made great strides in its real-time access capabilities, narrowing the gap compared to traditional database technologies. With systems such as Impala and Spark, analysts can now run complex queries or jobs over large datasets within a matter of seconds. With systems such as Apache HBase and Apache Phoenix, applications can achieve millisecond-scale random access to arbitrarily-sized datasets.
Despite these advances, some important gaps remain that prevent many applications from transitioning to Hadoop-based architectures. Users are often caught between a rock and a hard place: columnar formats such as Apache Parquet offer extremely fast scan rates for analytics, but little to no ability for real-time modification or row-by-row indexed access. Online systems such as HBase offer very fast random access, but scan rates that are too slow for large scale data warehousing workloads.
This talk will investigate the trade-offs between real-time transactional access and fast analytic performance from the perspective of storage engine internals. It will also describe Kudu, the new addition to the open source Hadoop ecosystem that fills the gap described above, complementing HDFS and HBase to provide a new option to achieve fast scans and fast random access from a single API.

Simplifying Hadoop with RecordService, A Secure and Unified Data Access Path ...Cloudera, Inc.
SFHUG presentation from February 2, 2016. One of the key values of the Hadoop ecosystem is its flexibility. There is a myriad of components that make up this ecosystem, allowing Hadoop to tackle otherwise intractable problems. However, having so many components provides a significant integration, implementation, and usability burden. Features that ought to work in all the components often require sizable per-component effort to ensure correctness across the stack.
Lenni Kuff explores RecordService, a new solution to this problem that provides an API to read data from Hadoop storage managers and return them as canonical records. This eliminates the need for components to support individual file formats, handle security, perform auditing, and implement sophisticated IO scheduling and other common processing that is at the bottom of any computation.
Lenni discusses the architecture of the service and the integration work done for MapReduce and Spark. Many existing applications on those frameworks can take advantage of the service with little to no modification. Lenni demonstrates how this provides fine grain (column level and row level) security, through Sentry integration, and improves performance for existing MapReduce and Spark applications by up to 5×. Lenni concludes by discussing how this architecture can enable significant future improvements to the Hadoop ecosystem.
About the speaker: Lenni Kuff is an engineering manager at Cloudera. Before joining Cloudera, he worked at Microsoft on a number of projects including SQL Server storage engine, SQL Azure, and Hadoop on Azure. Lenni graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with degrees in computer science and computer engineering.

Floating on a RAFT: HBase Durability with Apache RatisDataWorks Summit
In a world with a myriad of distributed storage systems to choose from, the majority of Apache HBase clusters still rely on Apache HDFS. Theoretically, any distributed file system could be used by HBase. One major reason HDFS is predominantly used are the specific durability requirements of HBase's write-ahead log (WAL) and HDFS providing that guarantee correctly. However, HBase's use of HDFS for WALs can be replaced with sufficient effort.
This talk will cover the design of a "Log Service" which can be embedded inside of HBase that provides a sufficient level of durability that HBase requires for WALs. Apache Ratis (incubating) is a library-implementation of the RAFT consensus protocol in Java and is used to build this Log Service. We will cover the design choices of the Ratis Log Service, comparing and contrasting it to other log-based systems that exist today. Next, we'll cover how the Log Service "fits" into HBase and the necessary changes to HBase which enable this. Finally, we'll discuss how the Log Service can simplify the operational burden of HBase.
Tracking Crime as It Occurs with Apache Phoenix, Apache HBase and Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
Utilizing Apache NiFi we read various open data REST APIs and camera feeds to ingest crime and related data real-time streaming it into HBase and Phoenix tables. HBase makes an excellent storage option for our real-time time series data sources. We can immediately query our data utilizing Apache Zeppelin against Phoenix tables as well as Hive external tables to HBase.
Apache Phoenix tables also make a great option since we can easily put microservices on top of them for application usage. I have an example Spring Boot application that reads from our Philadelphia crime table for front-end web applications as well as RESTful APIs.
Apache NiFi makes it easy to push records with schemas to HBase and insert into Phoenix SQL tables.

HBase Tales From the Trenches - Short stories about most common HBase operati...DataWorks Summit
Whilst HBase is the most logical answer for use cases requiring random, realtime read/write access to Big Data, it may not be so trivial to design applications that make most of its use, neither the most simple to operate. As it depends/integrates with other components from Hadoop ecosystem (Zookeeper, HDFS, Spark, Hive, etc) or external systems ( Kerberos, LDAP), and its distributed nature requires a "Swiss clockwork" infrastructure, many variables are to be considered when observing anomalies or even outages. Adding to the equation there's also the fact that HBase is still an evolving product, with different release versions being used currently, some of those can carry genuine software bugs. On this presentation, we'll go through the most common HBase issues faced by different organisations, describing identified cause and resolution action over my last 5 years supporting HBase to our heterogeneous customer base.
Optimizing Geospatial Operations with Server-side Programming in HBase and Ac...DataWorks Summit
LocationTech GeoMesa enables spatial and spatiotemporal indexing and queries for HBase and Accumulo. In this talk, after an overview of GeoMesa’s capabilities in the Cloudera ecosystem, we will dive into how GeoMesa leverages Accumulo’s Iterator interface and HBase’s Filter and Coprocessor interfaces. The goal will be to discuss both what spatial operations can be pushed down into the distributed database and also how the GeoMesa codebase is organized to allow for consistent use across the two database systems.
OCLC has been using HBase since 2012 to enable single-search-box access to over a billion items from your library and the world’s library collection. This talk will provide an overview of how HBase is structured to provide this information and some of the challenges they have encountered to scale to support the world catalog and how they have overcome them.
Many individuals/organizations have a desire to utilize NoSQL technology, but often lack an understanding of how the underlying functional bits can be utilized to enable their use case. This situation can result in drastic increases in the desire to put the SQL back in NoSQL.
Since the initial commit, Apache Accumulo has provided a number of examples to help jumpstart comprehension of how some of these bits function as well as potentially help tease out an understanding of how they might be applied to a NoSQL friendly use case. One very relatable example demonstrates how Accumulo could be used to emulate a filesystem (dirlist).
In this session we will walk through the dirlist implementation. Attendees should come away with an understanding of the supporting table designs, a simple text search supporting a single wildcard (on file/directory names), and how the dirlist elements work together to accomplish its feature set. Attendees should (hopefully) also come away with a justification for sometimes keeping the SQL out of NoSQL.
HBase Global Indexing to support large-scale data ingestion at UberDataWorks Summit
Danny Chen presented on Uber's use of HBase for global indexing to support large-scale data ingestion. Uber uses HBase to provide a global view of datasets ingested from Kafka and other data sources. To generate indexes, Spark jobs are used to transform data into HFiles, which are loaded into HBase tables. Given the large volumes of data, techniques like throttling HBase access and explicit serialization are used. The global indexing solution supports requirements for high throughput, strong consistency and horizontal scalability across Uber's data lake.
Scaling Cloud-Scale Translytics Workloads with Omid and PhoenixDataWorks Summit
Recently, Apache Phoenix has been integrated with Apache (incubator) Omid transaction processing service, to provide ultra-high system throughput with ultra-low latency overhead. Phoenix has been shown to scale beyond 0.5M transactions per second with sub-5ms latency for short transactions on industry-standard hardware. On the other hand, Omid has been extended to support secondary indexes, multi-snapshot SQL queries, and massive-write transactions.
These innovative features make Phoenix an excellent choice for translytics applications, which allow converged transaction processing and analytics. We share the story of building the next-gen data tier for advertising platforms at Verizon Media that exploits Phoenix and Omid to support multi-feed real-time ingestion and AI pipelines in one place, and discuss the lessons learned.
Building the High Speed Cybersecurity Data Pipeline Using Apache NiFiDataWorks Summit
This document discusses using Apache NiFi to build a high-speed cyber security data pipeline. It outlines the challenges of ingesting, transforming, and routing large volumes of security data from various sources to stakeholders like security operations centers, data scientists, and executives. It proposes using NiFi as a centralized data gateway to ingest data from multiple sources using a single entry point, transform the data according to destination needs, and reliably deliver the data while avoiding issues like network traffic and data duplication. The document provides an example NiFi flow and discusses metrics from processing over 20 billion events through 100+ production flows and 1000+ transformations.
Supporting Apache HBase : Troubleshooting and Supportability ImprovementsDataWorks Summit
This document discusses supporting Apache HBase and improving troubleshooting and supportability. It introduces two Cloudera employees who work on HBase support and provides an overview of typical troubleshooting scenarios for HBase like performance degradation, process crashes, and inconsistencies. The agenda covers using existing tools like logs and metrics to troubleshoot HBase performance issues with a general approach, and introduces htop as a real-time monitoring tool for HBase.
In the healthcare sector, data security, governance, and quality are crucial for maintaining patient privacy and ensuring the highest standards of care. At Florida Blue, the leading health insurer of Florida serving over five million members, there is a multifaceted network of care providers, business users, sales agents, and other divisions relying on the same datasets to derive critical information for multiple applications across the enterprise. However, maintaining consistent data governance and security for protected health information and other extended data attributes has always been a complex challenge that did not easily accommodate the wide range of needs for Florida Blue’s many business units. Using Apache Ranger, we developed a federated Identity & Access Management (IAM) approach that allows each tenant to have their own IAM mechanism. All user groups and roles are propagated across the federation in order to determine users’ data entitlement and access authorization; this applies to all stages of the system, from the broadest tenant levels down to specific data rows and columns. We also enabled audit attributes to ensure data quality by documenting data sources, reasons for data collection, date and time of data collection, and more. In this discussion, we will outline our implementation approach, review the results, and highlight our “lessons learned.”
Presto: Optimizing Performance of SQL-on-Anything EngineDataWorks Summit
Presto, an open source distributed SQL engine, is widely recognized for its low-latency queries, high concurrency, and native ability to query multiple data sources. Proven at scale in a variety of use cases at Airbnb, Bloomberg, Comcast, Facebook, FINRA, LinkedIn, Lyft, Netflix, Twitter, and Uber, in the last few years Presto experienced an unprecedented growth in popularity in both on-premises and cloud deployments over Object Stores, HDFS, NoSQL and RDBMS data stores.
With the ever-growing list of connectors to new data sources such as Azure Blob Storage, Elasticsearch, Netflix Iceberg, Apache Kudu, and Apache Pulsar, recently introduced Cost-Based Optimizer in Presto must account for heterogeneous inputs with differing and often incomplete data statistics. This talk will explore this topic in detail as well as discuss best use cases for Presto across several industries. In addition, we will present recent Presto advancements such as Geospatial analytics at scale and the project roadmap going forward.
Introducing MlFlow: An Open Source Platform for the Machine Learning Lifecycl...DataWorks Summit
Specialized tools for machine learning development and model governance are becoming essential. MlFlow is an open source platform for managing the machine learning lifecycle. Just by adding a few lines of code in the function or script that trains their model, data scientists can log parameters, metrics, artifacts (plots, miscellaneous files, etc.) and a deployable packaging of the ML model. Every time that function or script is run, the results will be logged automatically as a byproduct of those lines of code being added, even if the party doing the training run makes no special effort to record the results. MLflow application programming interfaces (APIs) are available for the Python, R and Java programming languages, and MLflow sports a language-agnostic REST API as well. Over a relatively short time period, MLflow has garnered more than 3,300 stars on GitHub , almost 500,000 monthly downloads and 80 contributors from more than 40 companies. Most significantly, more than 200 companies are now using MLflow. We will demo MlFlow Tracking , Project and Model components with Azure Machine Learning (AML) Services and show you how easy it is to get started with MlFlow on-prem or in the cloud.
Extending Twitter's Data Platform to Google CloudDataWorks Summit

At Comcast, our team has been architecting a customer experience platform which is able to react to near-real-time events and interactions and deliver appropriate and timely communications to customers. By combining the low latency capabilities of Apache Flink and the dataflow capabilities of Apache NiFi we are able to process events at high volume to trigger, enrich, filter, and act/communicate to enhance customer experiences. Apache Flink and Apache NiFi complement each other with their strengths in event streaming and correlation, state management, command-and-control, parallelism, development methodology, and interoperability with surrounding technologies. We will trace our journey from starting with Apache NiFi over three years ago and our more recent introduction of Apache Flink into our platform stack to handle more complex scenarios. In this presentation we will compare and contrast which business and technical use cases are best suited to which platform and explore different ways to integrate the two platforms into a single solution.
Securing Data in Hybrid on-premise and Cloud Environments using Apache RangerDataWorks Summit
Companies are increasingly moving to the cloud to store and process data. One of the challenges companies have is in securing data across hybrid environments with easy way to centrally manage policies. In this session, we will talk through how companies can use Apache Ranger to protect access to data both in on-premise as well as in cloud environments. We will go into details into the challenges of hybrid environment and how Ranger can solve it. We will also talk through how companies can further enhance the security by leveraging Ranger to anonymize or tokenize data while moving into the cloud and de-anonymize dynamically using Apache Hive, Apache Spark or when accessing data from cloud storage systems. We will also deep dive into the Ranger’s integration with AWS S3, AWS Redshift and other cloud native systems. We will wrap it up with an end to end demo showing how policies can be created in Ranger and used to manage access to data in different systems, anonymize or de-anonymize data and track where data is flowing.
Big Data Meets NVM: Accelerating Big Data Processing with Non-Volatile Memory...DataWorks Summit
Advanced Big Data Processing frameworks have been proposed to harness the fast data transmission capability of Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) over high-speed networks such as InfiniBand, RoCEv1, RoCEv2, iWARP, and OmniPath. However, with the introduction of the Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) and NVM express (NVMe) based SSD, these designs along with the default Big Data processing models need to be re-assessed to discover the possibilities of further enhanced performance. In this talk, we will present, NRCIO, a high-performance communication runtime for non-volatile memory over modern network interconnects that can be leveraged by existing Big Data processing middleware. We will show the performance of non-volatile memory-aware RDMA communication protocols using our proposed runtime and demonstrate its benefits by incorporating it into a high-performance in-memory key-value store, Apache Hadoop, Tez, Spark, and TensorFlow. Evaluation results illustrate that NRCIO can achieve up to 3.65x performance improvement for representative Big Data processing workloads on modern data centers.
Background: Some early applications of Computer Vision in Retail arose from e-commerce use cases - but increasingly, it is being used in physical stores in a variety of new and exciting ways, such as:
● Optimizing merchandising execution, in-stocks and sell-thru
● Enhancing operational efficiencies, enable real-time customer engagement
● Enhancing loss prevention capabilities, response time
● Creating frictionless experiences for shoppers
Abstract: This talk will cover the use of Computer Vision in Retail, the implications to the broader Consumer Goods industry and share business drivers, use cases and benefits that are unfolding as an integral component in the remaking of an age-old industry.
We will also take a ‘peek under the hood’ of Computer Vision and Deep Learning, sharing technology design principles and skill set profiles to consider before starting your CV journey.
Deep learning has matured considerably in the past few years to produce human or superhuman abilities in a variety of computer vision paradigms. We will discuss ways to recognize these paradigms in retail settings, collect and organize data to create actionable outcomes with the new insights and applications that deep learning enables.
We will cover the basics of object detection, then move into the advanced processing of images describing the possible ways that a retail store of the near future could operate. Identifying various storefront situations by having a deep learning system attached to a camera stream. Such things as; identifying item stocks on shelves, a shelf in need of organization, or perhaps a wandering customer in need of assistance.
We will also cover how to use a computer vision system to automatically track customer purchases to enable a streamlined checkout process, and how deep learning can power plausible wardrobe suggestions based on what a customer is currently wearing or purchasing.
Finally, we will cover the various technologies that are powering these applications today. Deep learning tools for research and development. Production tools to distribute that intelligence to an entire inventory of all the cameras situation around a retail location. Tools for exploring and understanding the new data streams produced by the computer vision systems.
By the end of this talk, attendees should understand the impact Computer Vision and Deep Learning are having in the Consumer Goods industry, key use cases, techniques and key considerations leaders are exploring and implementing today.
Big Data Genomics: Clustering Billions of DNA Sequences with Apache SparkDataWorks Summit
Whole genome shotgun based next generation transcriptomics and metagenomics studies often generate 100 to 1000 gigabytes (GB) sequence data derived from tens of thousands of different genes or microbial species. De novo assembling these data requires an ideal solution that both scales with data size and optimizes for individual gene or genomes. Here we developed an Apache Spark-based scalable sequence clustering application, SparkReadClust (SpaRC), that partitions the reads based on their molecule of origin to enable downstream assembly optimization. SpaRC produces high clustering performance on transcriptomics and metagenomics test datasets from both short read and long read sequencing technologies. It achieved a near linear scalability with respect to input data size and number of compute nodes. SpaRC can run on different cloud computing environments without modifications while delivering similar performance. In summary, our results suggest SpaRC provides a scalable solution for clustering billions of reads from the next-generation sequencing experiments, and Apache Spark represents a cost-effective solution with rapid development/deployment cycles for similar big data genomics problems.
