Appfluent intros Appfluent Visibility for Hadoop

NEW YORK, USA: Appfluent Technology, Inc., a provider of Big Data analytic solutions, today announced at the Strata Conference + Hadoop World its new product, Appfluent Visibility for Hadoop.

According to release, new solution provides insight into Hive SQL and its resulting impact on Hadoop job performance. Appfluent Visibility for Hadoop delivers detailed insight into the user activity related to Hive including the SQL statements, their performance and the data sets being used in Hadoop.

The solution also shows how the SQL statements correlate to the performance of associated MapReduce jobs, system resource consumption and performance.

Frank Gelbart, CEO of Appfluent, said: "Hadoop has become a major disruptive force, with a rapidly growing number of large enterprises moving workload and data onto Hadoop to slash database infrastructure costs and extend analytic capabilities."

"Operations and development teams need a way to proactively discover causes for performance bottlenecks and respond to end-user issues. Our solution gives them the in-depth, actionable information needed to allow them to quickly diagnose problems and increase performance levels," added Gelbart.

"We have noticed all enterprises with fifty-plus node Hadoop clusters run into the same challenges," said Santosh Chitakki, VP of Products for Appfluent.

"Once they are achieving the cost savings of Hadoop and keeping clusters healthy, there is a sudden shift in attention to the analytics,transformations, and output of Hadoop. There is a surprising lack of visibility into Hive and MapReduce processing, and that's what we provide," concluded Chitakki.
