Session Description
Cascading is the most widely used and deployed Java-based application development framework for building Big Data applications on Apache Hadoop. This open source, enterprise development framework allows developers to leverage their existing skillsets such as Java, SQL, Scala and more, to create enterprise-grade applications on Apache Hadoop without having to think in MapReduce, or scripting query languages like Pig and Hive. In this session, Ryan will provide an introduction to Cascading and dive into using it to build applications.

Big Data TechCon
What: "Increase Hadoop Utilization With Your Data Warehouse"
Who: Supreet Oberoi, vice president of field engineering, Concurrent, Inc.
When: Wednesday, Oct. 29 at 11:45 a.m. PT
How: Register at http://www.bigdatatechcon.com/registrationdetails.html

Session Description
The Hadoop ecosystem is an effective platform for conducting data-engineering tasks. However, mission-critical BI applications continue to run on traditional data warehouse platforms. In such enterprise use cases, Hadoop is emerging as a technology that augments existing platforms for processing these data-intensive tasks, requiring organizations to not only migrate workloads onto Hadoop for processing, but also extract data for reporting and analysis.
