The Tools Of Real-Time Big Data Analytics

More and more tools of real-time big data analytics provide the possibility of processing of Big Data. Since Hadoop doesn’t provide real-time big data analytics at the moment, companies should use other products. There are some open source tools available that perform the job well.

• Storm –

It is now owned by Twitter. Storm is a real-time distributed computation system that works in the same way like Hadoop offers batch processing by using a set of general primitives to conduct real-time analyses.

• Cloudera –

It offers the Cloudera Enterprise RTQ tools that provide real-time, interactive analytical queries. These queries are stored in HDFS or HBase.

• GridGain –

It is an enterprise open source grid computing designed for Java. GridGain is compatible with Hadoop DFS and it can be a great substitute to Hadoop’s MapReduce.

• SpaceCurve –

The technology provided by SpaceCurve can discover underlying patterns in multidimensional geodata.

Though there are several other different real-time big data analytics tools available, but we have explained a few tools here.

Businesses can leverage these tools and use Big Data to make sound decisions for business growth and development.
