What You'll Learn
“Big Data” is now essential for knowledge discovery driven by theory, experiments, and large-scale simulations across many scientific disciplines--but how does it differ from normal research data? With ever-increasing datasets, new methods for storing, sharing, analyzing and visualizing big data are needed. Processing, mining, and analyzing these massive amounts of data efficiently also requires new approaches and tools not usually possible with traditional server environments. At this event, presenters will:

  *   Introduce tools and techniques for managing and analyzing large datasets such as Hadoop and MapReduce
  *   Illustrate these technologies using case studies, including the management and analysis of datasets produced by CERN for the LHC project
