What you'll learn

  • Learn how to do cloud-native data science with Anaconda, Docker, and Kubernetes

Description

Big data architectures like Hadoop and Spark solve the distributed database problem well but have as an article of faith that moving compute closer to data is important for performance. They also assume your code is written in Java or another JVM-based language like Scala.

The big problem? Data science, predictive analytics, and ML don’t happen in JVM-based languages. They happen in Python, R, and to a lesser extent C/C++. Secondly, today’s data center networks have 1,000x the bandwidth at a lower total cost versus 2005, when Hadoop was first conceived, meaning that data locality doesn’t matter so much. Lastly, all the major players—AWS, Microsoft, Google, IBM, Red Hat, and Docker—are lined up behind Kubernetes. Containers and Kubernetes make great language-agnostic distributed computing clusters.

Mathew Lodge demonstrates that it’s just as easy to deploy Python as it is Java, walking you through doing cloud-native data science with Anaconda, Docker, and Kubernetes. Welcome to the future.

This session is sponsored by Anaconda.
