Become a data-driven business to gain competitive advantage

Reliable and Reusable Tooling to Quickly Build Data Products

Together, MapR and Concurrent are leading the movement towards Hadoop- based applications for the enterprise. Gain a competitive advantage by develop-ing applications that leverage all of your data assets (legacy data, logs, sensor data, social media, etc.) in order to better serve your customers. This new class of applications helps you gain insights into your customers and operations in ways that were previously impossible.

The MapR Distribution is designed for production-grade applications that are run at large scale, so having operational visibility into those applications is crucial.

Keeping with the theme of addressing the needs of enterprise users, Concurrent’s Driven APM tool gives developers, operations and line-of-business managers the tools they need to improve the quality, reliability and manageability of all of their big data applications. Driven’s unprecedented visibility into data applications provides deep insights, search, segmentation and visualizations for service-level agreement (SLA) management—all while collecting rich operational metadata in a scalable data repository. This gives you the ability to isolate, control, report and manage a broad range of data applications, from the simplest to the most com-plex data processes. Driven is a proven performance management solution that you can rely on to ensure the successful implementation of your data strategy.

Because your data is your business, you need to ensure the quality, reliability and manageability of your data applications

About MapR

Cascading allows you to develop your business logic separately from your inte-gration logic. It provides a rich API that allows you to think in terms of data and business problems with capabilities such as sort, average, filter, merge, etc. The computation engine and process planner convert your business logic into efficient parallel jobs, delivering the optimal plan at runtime to your MapR installation. With Cascading, you don’t need to become a MapReduce expert to build applications on top of Hadoop. With Cascading’s intuitive Java API, you can use Java to build robust data-driven applications. Cascading’s extensions also give you the ability to leverage your SQL, Scala and data modeling skills. Because Hadoop is never used alone, Cascading allows you to easily read and write from a variety of external systems to Hadoop and write results to another system (e.g., Teradata). The Cascading SDK comes with many pre-built and sup-ported integrations, with many more provided by the community.
