Re: OLAP query using spark dataframe with cassandra

Some friends refer me this thread about OLAP/Kylin and Spark...

Here's my 2 cents..

If you are trying to setup OLAP, Apache Kylin should be one good idea for
you to evaluate.

The project has developed more than 2 years and going to graduate to Apache
Top Level Project [1].
There are many deployments on production already include eBay, Exponential,
JD.com, VIP.com and others, refer to powered by page [2].

Apache Kylin's spark engine also on the way, there's discussion about
turning the performance [3].

There are variety clients are available to interactive with Kylin with ANSI
SQL, including Tableau, Zeppelin, Pentaho/mondrian, Saiku/mondrian, and the
Excel/PowerBI support will roll out this week.

Apache Kylin is young but mature with huge case validation (one biggest
cube in eBay contains 85+B rows, 90%ile production platform's query latency
in few seconds).

StreamingOLAP is coming in Kylin v2.0 with plug-able architecture, there's
already one real case on production inside eBay, please refer to our design
deck [4]

We are really welcome everyone to join and contribute to Kylin as OLAP
engine for Big Data:-)

Please feel free to contact our community or me for any question.

Thanks.

That's great.
Good to know the roadmap of Kylin.

Re: OLAP query using spark dataframe with cassandra

Posted by David Morales <dm...@stratio.com>.
Hi there,

Please consider our real-time aggregation engine, sparkta, fully open
source (Apache2 License).

Here you have some slides about the project:

   - http://www.slideshare.net/Stratio/strata-sparkta

And the source code:


   - https://github.com/Stratio/sparkta

Sparkta is a real-time aggregation engine based on spark streaming. You can
define your aggregation policy in a declarative way and choose the output
of your rollups, too. In addition, you can store the raw data and transform
data on-the-fly, among other features.

When working with Cassandra, it could be useful to use the lucene
integration that we have also released at Stratio:


   - http://www.slideshare.net/Stratio/cassandra-meetup-20150217
   - https://github.com/Stratio/cassandra-lucene-index


Ready for use with sparkSQL or in your CQL queries.

We are now working in a SQL layer to work with the cubes in a flexible way,
but this is not available at this moment.

Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any doubt.


Regards.

Re: OLAP query using spark dataframe with cassandra

Posted by danielcsant <dc...@stratio.com>.
You can also evaluate Stratio Sparkta. It is a real time aggregation tool
based on Spark Streaming. 
It is able to write in Cassandra and in other databases like MongoDB,
Elasticsearch,... It is prepared to deploy this aggregations in Mesos so
maybe it fits your necessities.

There is no a query layer that could abstract the analytics part in OLAP but
it is on the roadmap.

Disclaimer: I work in this product
