jay vyas commented on BIGTOP-1089: ---------------------------------- FYI, as per some conversations here at ApacheCon, Im going to fast track a patch for this so that folks such as [~mackrorysd] and [~posix4e] can jump in and contribute (thanks in advance) ! FYI the current places for improvement (will create JIRAs) - rewrite pom.xml into a build.gradle script (how does gradle support a notion of "profiles")? - test hive code at scale and add configurability for jdbc connection (right now is just local/embedded) - test mahout code at scale - update docs for above ^^ - package BPS web app into a jetty app that launches as a build profile or task in code (right now its in gh-pages branch on github) > BigPetStore: A polyglot big data processing blueprint inside of bigtop for > comparing and learning about the tools in the bigtop packaged hadoop > ecosystem. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BIGTOP-1089 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1089 > Project: Bigtop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Blueprints > Affects Versions: 0.7.0 > Reporter: jay vyas > Assignee: jay vyas > Fix For: 0.8.0 > > > The need for templates for processing big data pipelines is obvious - and > also - given the increasing amount of overlap across different big data and > nosql projects, it will provide a ground truth in the future for comparing > the behaviour and approach of different tools to solve a common, easily > comprehended problem. > This ticket formalizes the conversation in mailing list archives regarding > the BigPetStore proposal. > At the moment, (with the exception of word count), there are very few > examples of bigdata problems that have been solved by a variety of different > technologies. And, even with wordcount, there arent alot of templates which > can be customized for applications. > Comparatively: Other application developer communities (i.e.the Rails folks, > those using maven archetypes, etc.. ) have a plethora of template > applications which can be used to kickstart their applications and use cases. > > This big pet store JIRA thus aims to do the following: > 0) Curate a single, central, standard input data set . (modified: generating > a large input data set on the fly). > 1) Define a big data processing pipeline (using the pet store theme - except > morphing it to be analytics rather than transaction oriented), and implement > basic aggregations in hive, pig, etc... > 2) Sink the results of 2 into some kind of NoSQL store or search engine. > > Some implementation details -- open to change these, please comment/review -- > . > - initial data source will be raw text or (better yet) some kind of > automatically generated data. > - the source will initially go in bigtop/blueprints > - the application sources can be in any modern JVM language > (java,scala,groovy,clojure), since bigtop supports scala, java, groovy > natively already and clojure is easy to support with the right jars. > - each "job" will be named according to the corresponding DAG of the big data > pipeline . > - all jobs should (not sure if requirement?) be controlled by a global > program (maybe oozie?) which runs the tasks in order, and can easily be > customized to use different tools at different stages. > - for now, all outputs will be to files: so that users don't require servers > to run the app. > - final data sinks will be into a highly available transaction oriented store > (solr/hbase/...) > This ticket will be completed once a first iteration of BigPetStore is > complete using 3 ecosystem components, along with a depiction of the pipeline > which can be used for development. > I've assigned this to myself :) I hope thats okay? Seems like at the moment > im the only one working on it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
