The week's presentation is by the Urban Airship crew with a focus on managing big data and real-time analytics.
"The main topic will be how we use Hadoop and HBase at Urban Airship for
collecting and analyzing data from mobile apps. Mobile app developers
integrate our client library into their apps, which send analytic events to
our backend. We'll talk about the problems involved in collecting and
analyzing data at scale. We use HBase for storing raw events, for feeding
the analysis processes, and serving the generated reports. We use Hadoop
Mapreduce for ad-hoc analysis and moving large amounts of data; we'll talk
about why it's unsuitable for the kind of near-real-time incremental
analysis that we do.
For the data scientists, we'll talk about our data set and types of
analyses we'd like to do. Our current reports are fairly basic, but we'd
like to know what factors affect user engagement with mobile push
notifications and whether we can make predictions about their effectiveness. " |
