    Abstract: From the moment your organization starts collecting data, it's crucial to make key decisions about governance. What data should you gather? How do you ensure it's accurate and current? Where do you store it, and for how long? Today, many policies for gathering and sharing data are determined in business suites, rather than by the nature of the data itself. In order to meet strategic business requirements, you must understand and define the rules that manage your organization's data assets. In this report, you'll examine the many aspects of data-driven governance, particularly how this approach makes automation, enforcement, and security tasks easier. Author Federico Castanedo of Vodafone Group describes the practices and frameworks for regulatory compliance, including technology that can marry your policies to data you collect and provide fine-grained access controls. Many businesses collect large volumes of structured, unstructured, geospatial, and other data types that often require NoSQL databases alongside relational platforms. This detailed report explores how multi-model databases support a wide range of data models against a single integrated backend, enabling your organization to easily define data-driven governance policies at scale-and ultimately to help you reduce compliance costs. Discover a new approach that establishes governance at the data level versus the system level in order to reduce risk, facilitate operational decisions, and improve integrity.

    Keywords: Big data ; Business enterprises ; Data processing ; Information technology ; Management ; Database management ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Organizations across all industries are attempting to capitalize on the promise of Big Data by using their information assets as a source of competitive advantage. In doing so, they are investing heavily in areas such as analytic tools and new storage capabilities. However, they often neglect the data management layer of the equation: it's not simply about finding an optimal way to store or analyze the data, but it's also vital that you prepare and manage the data for consumption. After all, if the data is inaccurate or incomplete, no consumer will trust or use it. Typically, organizations expend a lot of time on manual data cleaning and vetting to create "master records"-a single, trusted view of an organizational entity such as a customer or supplier-and this is often the area where most help is needed. This report explains just how powerful machine learning can be when applied directly to the creation of master data records. Known as agile data mastering, this method leverages ML's speed and flexibility to quickly create accurate master records that can scale across datasets and domains. You'll learn agile data mastering processes based on the operation of Tamr, an enterprise-scale data unification company that applies human-guided machine learning to this task. This report explores the: Overall importance and many uses of master data records Challenge of creating these records in distributed, complex data environments Differences between traditional master data management (MDM) and agile data mastering Advantages of agile data mastering Technology of Tamr, a data unification company that provides agile data mastering solutions

    Keywords: Metadata ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: One viable option for organizations looking to harness massive amounts of data is the data lake, a single repository for storing all the raw data, both structured and unstructured, that floods into the company. But that isn't the end of the story. The key to making a data lake work is data governance, using metadata to provide valuable context through tagging and cataloging. This practical report examines why metadata is essential for managing, migrating, accessing, and deploying any big data solution. Authors Federico Castanedo and Scott Gidley dive into the specifics of analyzing metadata for keeping track of your data-where it comes from, where it's located, and how it's being used-so you can provide safeguards and reduce risk. In the process, you'll learn about methods for automating metadata capture. This report also explains the main features of a data lake architecture, and discusses the pros and cons of several data lake management solutions that support metadata. These solutions include: Traditional data integration/management vendors such as the IBM Research Accelerated Discovery Lab Tooling from open source projects, including Teradata Kylo and Informatica Startups such as Trifacta and Zaloni that provide best of breed technology

    Hadoop and Spark performance for the Enterprise : ensuring quality of service in multi-tenant environments (2016)
    Sebastopol, CA : O'Reilly Media
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume) , illustrations
    Edition: First edition.
    Keywords: Apache Hadoop ; Spark (Electronic resource : Apache Software Foundation) ; Electronic data processing ; Distributed processing ; Information technology ; Management ; Big data ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Virtually every enterprise depends on big data analysis, but distributed computing environments such as Hadoop and Spark are complicated, to say the least. Multiple users, business units, and workload types often compete for valuable computing resources. Monitoring tools are not well equipped to handle this level of complexity, and typically provide only very high-level and historical information. The lack of fine-grained visibility for making real-time adjustments to running workloads means that high-priority jobs can easily be pushed aside by lower-priority jobs. It's time to bring Quality of Service (QoS) to distributed processing in multi-tenant Hadoop environments. This O'Reilly report explains how QoS allows operators to assign priorities to jobs, ensuring that higher-priority tasks get the resources needed to meet critical deadlines. Author Andy Oram examines the critical role of performance in the evolution of operating systems, data warehouses, and distributed processing. He also discusses Quasar (part of Mesos) and Pepperdata, two tools that can help improve performance in distributed computing environments. You'll discover how tools that help ensure QoS can help distributed environments evolve to accommodate: Multiple users contending for resources, such as those on operating systems Jobs that grow or shrink in hardware usage, so they don't strain at resource limits or let resources go to waste Jobs of different priorities, including soft real-time requirements that allow them to override lower-priority or adhoc jobs Performance guarantees, similar to service-level agreements (SLAs)

    Abstract: Organizations across many industries have recently created fast-growing repositories to deal with an influx of new data from many sources and often in multiple formats. To manage these data lakes, companies have begun to leave the familiar confines of relational databases and data warehouses for Hadoop and various big data solutions. But adopting new technology alone won't solve the problem. Based on interviews with several experts in data management, author Andy Oram provides an in-depth look at common issues you're likely to encounter as you consider how to manage business data. You'll explore five key topic areas, including: Acquisition and ingestion: how to solve these problems with a degree of automation. Metadata: how to keep track of when data came in and how it was formatted, and how to make it available at later stages of processing. Data preparation and cleaning: what you need to know before you prepare and clean your data, and what needs to be cleaned up and how. Organizing workflows: what you should do to combine your tasks-ingestion, cataloging, and data preparation-into an end-to-end workflow. Access control: how to address security and access controls at all stages of data handling. Andy Oram, an editor at O'Reilly Media since 1992, currently specializes in programming. His work for O'Reilly includes the first books on Linux ever published commercially in the United States.

    Abstract: There's nothing ordinary about JBoss. What began as an open source EJB container project six years ago has become a fully certified J2EE 1.4 application server with the largest market share, competitive with proprietary Java application servers in features and quality. And with its dynamic architecture, JBoss isn't just a J2EE server. You can alter the services to make J2EE work the way you want, or even throw J2EE away completely. After more than a million downloads, many JBoss users are no longer trying it out on internal test boxes, but rolling it out on production machines. JBoss: A Developer's Notebook takes you on a complete tour of JBoss in a very unique way: rather than long discussions, you will find code--lots of code. In fact, the book is a collection of hands-on labs that take you through the critical JBoss features step-by-step. You don't just read about JBoss, you learn it through direct practical application. That includes exploring the server's many configurations: from bare features for simple applications, to the lightweight J2EE configuration, to everything JBoss has in store-including Hibernate and Tomcat. JBoss: A Developer's Notebook also introduces the management console, the web services messaging features, enhanced monitoring capabilities, and shows you how to improve performance.

    Abstract: There's nothing like teamwork for making progress on a project, but sharing information and building on each other's successes can be challenging when your team is scattered across the miles. Microsoft's SharePoint helps teams and organizations close the distance. With SharePoint, groups construct web sites specifically for collaboration--sites where individuals can capture and share ideas, and work together on documents, tasks, contacts, and events. It's the next best thing to being in the room together.Unfortunately, much of the documentation for SharePoint is written to help system administrators get it up and running, which often leaves end users in the dark. The SharePoint User's Guide takes another approach: this quick and easy guide shows you what you need to know to start using SharePoint effectively and how to get the most from it. You'll learn how to create sites that your organization can use to work together or independently, from an end user's point of view. Now, even beginners can learn how to: access sites that are already set up create new sites personalize sites use the document and picture libraries for adding and editing content add discussion boards and surveys to a site enhance security You'll learn how you can receive alerts to tell you when existing documents and information have been changed, or when new information or documents have been added. You can even share select information with partners or customers outside your organization. No one that uses SharePoint collaboration services can afford to be without this handy book.The SharePoint User's Guide is designed to help you find answers quickly, explaining key concepts and major points in straightforward language. With SharePoint, any team or organization can overcome geographic or time-zone challenges, and the SharePoint User's Guide will show them how.

    Abstract: With off-the-shelf computer systems to fit any budget or requirement, some people might wonder why you'd want to build your own. They don't understand that for many computer users, a ready-made system is about as satisfying as popping a frozen dinner in the microwave when you'd rather have real food instead. Sure, it works, but it's not exactly what you need or want. There's a lot to be said for a computer that has exactly the quality components you choose, by the manufacturers you choose, rather than the conveniently bundled assortment made for your price point. But perhaps you've stopped short of building your own because you're inexperienced or you're concerned it won't come out right. After all, you want your computer to be perfect. Hesitate no longer: Building the Perfect PC delivers end-to-end instructions (that even inexperienced PC-builders can follow) for creating your ideal machine. Written by hardware experts Robert Bruce Thompson and Barbara Fritchman Thompson, this book covers it all, beginning with the various reasons why you'd want to build your own PC, planning and picking out the components, and putting it all together. The book outlines a variety of complete systems and all of their components, including a small form factor PC; a middle-of-the-road "sweet spot" system with top-notch components; and a top-end gaming PC with high-end video, a fast processor, and enough RAM to make your palms sweat just thinking about it. Straightforward language, clear directions, and extensive illustrations make this guide a breeze for computer builders of any level to follow--even those with little or no experience. If you've yearned for a quality machine with high-end components that suit your needs, then Building the Perfect PC will put you where you want to be: in control of your computer system.
