The Mid Week News - 14/06/2017
Right, let’s try and do this a bit more regularly (although it’s a bit late today!), especially as it seems to have been a busy news week…
The Plan For This Week - 12/06/2017
It’s going to be a bit a a sweep up week this week - there are a number of (mostly new) technologies that have come up over the last few weeks I’d like to have a quick look at before we move onto our next technology catalogue.
So, in no particular order, the plan this week is to look at Azure Data Lake Store (scalable HDFS in the cloud - intriguing), Druid (now bundled with HDP in tech preview), Cloudera Altus (their new Data Engineering job execution service), Apache Superset (the new open source dashboard and reporting tool from AirBnB) and Pravega (the Kafka alternative from Dell EMC).
See you on Friday.
Object Stores Wrap-Up
I’ve not quite settled into our pivot to looking at technologies by category, but I think we’re getting somewhere. Again, I feel like I’ve picked some really nasty areas to start with, but I’m hoping what we’ve ended up with is going to provide some value.
So let’s summarise where we’ve got to with our list of Object Store technologies, and ponder those we took a deeper dive into over the last week.

We interupt the current broadcast for another (semi regular) catchup up on the news…
The Week That Was - 02/06/2017
Just a very quick update this week.
It’s been a much shorter week that usual due to me being elsewhere at the beginning of the week and only starting our look into object stores on Wednesday. Because of that we’ll continue into next week, and I’m therefore not going to summarise any of the technologies we’ve looked at this week today.
