TITLE: Apache Hadoop and Yarn: Past, Present and Future
SPEAKER: Varun Vasudev, HortonWorks
DATE: TUE 07 MAR 2017
TIME: 330-5PM
VENUE: CDS 102

ABSTRACT: Apache Hadoop and Yarn have revolutionized Big Data platforms over the last decade, and become the de facto software stack for handling large volumes of Big Data. Hadoop provides an implementation of the MapReduce programming model while YARN is the resource scheduler for Hadoop. These have been used by MapReduce applications, and as a base stack by other Big Data software such as HBase, Giraph, etc. This talk will offer a history of Hadoop/YARN, starting from its original days at Yahoo!, discuss Hadoop and YARN as it is right now, and about YARN going forward – what are the new things coming up, the kind of problems we’re looking to solve, etc.
