Speaking Sessions

  • Why Would You Integrate Solr and Hadoop? (and why would you do that?)

    10:45 AM Sunday   Room: 4201
    As more companies are turning to and finishing implementation of Hadoop for their storage and distributed computation needs, there comes a question on how best to expose the stored information and analytics to end-users. In this talk we discuss how Solr and Hadoop complement each other, and how to use Solr as a real-time, analytical, full-text search front-end to data stored in Hadoop. The use cases covered are applicable to near-real time search and indexing, enterprise document search, eCommerce applications, machine/log record analysis, and financial applications, among others.
