Study Notes

Big Data Characteristics

  • One primary characteristic of Big Data is its massive scale and complexity.

Hadoop Components

  • HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System) is a component of Hadoop.

Apache Hive

  • Hive uses HiveQL (Hive Query Language) for Big Data processing.
  • Hive is a data warehousing and SQL-like query language for Hadoop.
  • A benefit of using Hive in the Hadoop ecosystem is that it provides a way to process and analyze large datasets using familiar SQL-like queries.
  • Hive is NOT typically associated with real-time data processing.

Apache Parquet

  • A benefit of using Apache Parquet for storing structured data is that it provides efficient storage and querying of data.

Hadoop Data Formats

  • AVRO is NOT commonly used for storing data in Hadoop.

Apache HBase

  • Apache HBase is a valuable component in the Hadoop ecosystem because it provides a distributed, column-oriented NoSQL database for storing large amounts of semi-structured and structured data.

PySpark

  • PySpark is NOT characterized by its use for real-time data processing.
  • PySpark is NOT commonly used for machine learning tasks such as decision trees.

Machine Learning Tasks

  • PySpark is commonly used for machine learning tasks such as clustering and regression analysis.
