BigPetStore on Spark and Flink

Implementing use cases on unified Big Data engines


Implementing use cases on unified data platforms. Having a unified data processing engine empowers Big Data application developers as it makes connections between seemingly unrelated use cases natural. This talk discusses the implementation of the so-called BigPetStore project (which is a part of Apache Bigtop) in Apache Spark and Apache Flink. The aim BigPetStore is to provide a common suite to test and benchmark Big Data installations. The talk features best practices and implementation with the batch, streaming, SQL, DataFrames and machine learning APIs of Apache Spark and Apache Flink side by side. A range of use cases are outlined in both systems from data generation, through ETL, recommender systems to online prediction.
