Modern Big Data Processing with Hadoop

Hadoop Life Cycle Management

In this chapter, we will understand the following topics:

  • Data wrangling
  • Data masking
  • Data security

Data wrangling

If you have some experience working on data of some sort, you will recollect that most of the time data needs to be preprocessed so that we can further use it as part of a bigger analysis. This process is called data wrangling.

Let's see what the typical flow in this process looks like:

  • Data acquisition
  • Data structure analysis
  • Information extraction
  • Unwanted data removal
  • Data transformation
  • Data standardization

Let's try to understand these in detail.

Data acquisition

Even though not a part of data wrangling, this phase deals with the process of acquiring data from somewhere. Typically, all data is generated and stored in a central location or is available in files located on some shared storage...

Data masking

Businesses that deal with customer data have to make sure that the PII (personally identifiable information) of these customers is not moving freely around the entire data pipeline. This criterion is applicable not only to customer data but also to any other type of data that is considered classified, as per standards such as GDPR, SOX, and so on. In order to make sure that we protect the privacy of customers, employees, contractors, and vendors, we need to take the necessary precautions to ensure that when the data goes through several pipelines, users of the data see only anonymized data. The level of anonymization we do depends upon the standards the company adheres to and also the prevailing country standards.

So, data masking can be called the process of hiding/transforming portions of original data with other data without losing the meaning or context.

In this...

Data security

Data has become a very important asset for businesses when making very critical decisions. As the complexity of the infrastructure that generates and uses this data, its very important to have some control over the access patterns of this data. In the Hadoop ecosystem, we have Apache Ranger, which is another open source project that helps in managing the security of big data.

What is Apache Ranger?

Apache Ranger is an application that enables data architects to implement security policies on a big data ecosystem. The goal of this project is to provide a unified way for all Hadoop applications to adhere to the security guidelines that are defined.

Here are some of the features of Apache Ranger:

  • Centralized administration...

Summary

In this chapter, we learned about the different data life cycle stages, including when data is created, shared, maintained, archived, retained, and deleted.

This chapter gave you a detailed understanding of how big data is managed, considering the fact that it is either unstructured or semi-structured and it has a fast arrival rate and large volume.

As the complexity of the infrastructure that generates and uses data in business organizations has increased drastically, it has become imperative to secure your data properly. This chapter further covered data security tools, such as Apache Ranger, and patterns to help us learn how to have control over the access patterns of data.

In the next chapter, we will take a look at Hadoop installation, its architecture and key components.

This is a highly practical, no-nonsense and to-the-point kind of a book which is the kind of books I like where the author gets to the meat of the content without wasting a lot of time in build up to the climax in every topic being discussed! It provides a broad coverage of Big Data Topics with just the right amount of detail to help one jumpstart on their big data journey without missing the big picture or the key pieces of the puzzle. The book systematically talks about Big Data all the way from the basic installation of Hadoop through data ingestion tools and techniques, commonly used big data stores and real-time data streams to building an enterprise search. The simplicity of the book makes it very easy to understand and the examples provided make it relatively easier to practically implement those concepts.

In a long time this is one of the most pragmatic and most well explained book written in tune with the current and future industry practices. Not only will this book help beginners but also give a clear insight for experienced professionals as well working in the data engineering field. I would highly recommend this book for in premise and cloud deployments as well. As an engineer myself it helped me adopt few best practices from this book. Happy leary folks.
