On Wednesday, August 7, 2013 in Sunnyvale at NetApp, The Hive Held an event discussing Big Data, Hadoop, Hive, MapReduce, Pig and SQL. Raghu Ramakrishnan of Microsoft moderated panelists Justin Erickson of Cloudera, Alan Gates of Hortonworks, Sausheel Kaushik of Pivotal, Priyank Patel of Teradata Aster, and Tomer Shiran of MapR. Grabbing large batches of data with MapReduce is fine, but businesses still want SQL for interactive and real-time queries. The result will be a hybrid of new and old strategies. The best strategy is to hire an experienced SQL developer with a strong ETL background and let them learn the new tools. You will get the information you need when you need it.
