The collaboration between Big Data EU H2020 research projects, I-BiDaaS, BigDataStack and Track & Know was initiated in the beginning of 2020, when during the BDV PPP Summit 2020, they decided to join forces in a series of 9 online demonstrations of innovative Big Data Technologies in the pilot studies and their applicability to an ever wider scope contributing to Europe’s digital future: the Big Data PIlot Demo Days.
How to Layout Big Data in IBM Cloud Object Storage for Spark SQL
BlogPost published on ibm.com
When you have vast quantities of rectangular data, the way you lay it out in object storage systems like IBM Cloud Object Storage (COS) makes a big difference to both the cost and performance of SQL queries; however, this task is not as simple as it sounds. Here we survey some tricks of the trade.
Accelerate Your Big Data Analytics and Reduce Costs by Using IBM Cloud SQL Query
BlogPost published on ibm.com
In this blog post, we demonstrate how using the SQL Query Catalog with data skipping indexes can accelerate performance by x14 and lower cost by 43%. According to today’s best practices for cloud, both analytics and storage should be run as separate services with a serverless pay-as-you-go pricing model.
Data Skipping for IBM Cloud SQL Query
BlogPost published on ibm.com
In this post, we’re going to show you how data skipping can boost the performance of your queries with IBM Cloud SQL Query and reduce cost by skipping over up to 99% of your dataset. SQL Query is a serverless SQL service for querying structured data on IBM Cloud Object Storage (COS) with less specialized expertise and at a lower cost than traditional DBMSs.
