• Founder & Principal Consultant => Big Data Open Source Security LLC - http://stealth.ly
Big Data Open Source Security LLC provides professional services and product solutions for the collection, storage,
transfer, real-time analytics, batch processing and reporting for complex data streams, data sets and distributed
systems. BDOSS is all about the "glue" and helping companies to not only figure out what Big Data Infrastructure
Components to use but also how to change their existing (or build new) systems to work with them.
• CEO => Elodina, Inc.
Expanding BDOSS from just consulting, Elodina is an ISV & SaaS provider of stream solutions & open source software.
Elodina helps make data streams actionable.

● Bringing it all together with Accumulo
Real-Time Distributed and Reactive Systems
A distributed system for asynchronous stream processing with
non-blocking back pressure where complex event processing
systems can influence the response without coupling the
business logic of processing. The response can be calculated
by parallel operations with concurrent orthogonal processing
engines computing their influence towards the final result.
Apache Kafka
• Apache Kafka
o http://kafka.apache.org
• Apache Kafka Source Code
o https://github.com/apache/kafka
• Documentation
o http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html
• Wiki
o https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Index
Producers, Consumers, Brokers
• Producers - ** push **
o Batching
o Compression
o Sync (Ack), Async (auto batch)
o Replication
o Sequential writes, guaranteed ordering within each partition
• Consumers - ** pull **
o No state held by broker
o Consumers control reading from the stream
• Zero Copy for producers and consumers to and from the broker
http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#maximizingefficiency
• Message stay on disk when consumed, deletes on TTL or compaction
https://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#compaction

Wire Protocol Developers Guide
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/A+Guide+To+The+Kafka+Protocol
Really Quick Start (Scala)
1) Install Vagrant http://www.vagrantup.com/
2) Install Virtual Box https://www.virtualbox.org/
3) git clone https://github.com/stealthly/scala-kafka
4) cd scala-kafka
5) vagrant up
Zookeeper will be running on 192.168.86.5
BrokerOne will be running on 192.168.86.10
All the tests in ./src/test/scala/* should pass (which is also /vagrant/src/test/scala/* in the vm)
6) ./gradlew test
Really Quick Start (Go)
1) Install Vagrant http://www.vagrantup.com/
2) Install Virtual Box https://www.virtualbox.org/
3) git clone https://github.com/stealthly/go-kafka
4) cd go-kafka
5) vagrant up
6) vagrant ssh brokerOne
7) cd /vagrant
8) sudo ./test.sh

Apache Mesos
● Scalability to 10,000s of nodes
● Fault-tolerant replicated master and slaves using ZooKeeper
● Support for Docker containers
● Native isolation between tasks with Linux Containers
● Multi-resource scheduling (memory, CPU, disk, and ports)
● Java, Python and C++ APIs for developing new parallel applications
● Web UI for viewing cluster state

Kafka on Mesos
● The Mesos Kafka framework https://github.com/mesos/kafka
○ Smart broker.id assignment.
○ Preservation of broker placement.
○ Ability to-do configuration changes.
○ Rolling restarts.
○ Auto-scaling the cluster up and down.
Accumulo on Mesos
No framework yet, but you can use Marathon, no problem!
Marathon https://github.com/mesosphere/marathon is a cluster-
wide init and control system for services in cgroups or docker
based on Apache Mesos
HDFS on Mesos https://github.com/mesosphere/hdfs (more on
this in a bit)
Where does Accumulo fit in?
● Iterators
○ Accumulo iterators are a real time processing framework with
“reduce like” functionality
● Multi HDFS Volume Support
○ Spin up HDFS clusters when they are needed
● Streaming Large Blobs
○ Post files in producers, process and respond to scans
● More!
