Big data integration tool targets Hadoop skills gap

The software company last week debuted a developer edition of #iWay #BigData Integrator, which it is offering at no cost for six months. The tool could boost the productivity of channel partners working on big data projects and could help other partners launch businesses in the growing market, industry executives said. #BigDataIntegrator, an evolution of the #iWay #Hadoop Data Manager, initially launched in March 2017 on the #Microsoft #Azure Marketplace Cloud. According to Information Builders, Big Data Integrator simplifies Hadoop, providing a graphical interface for Hadoop and #Apache #Spark data ingestion and transformation that reduces the need for coding. Hadoop, a software framework for storing and processing large data sets, provides a foundation for developing big data applications. Apache Spark is a data processing engine that supports in-memory computing and can run on Hadoop. Jake Freivald, vice president of product marketing at Information Builders, based in New York, said harnessing the power of Hadoop is difficult and involves complicated programming, adding the task of managing Hadoop environments is somewhat arduous, as well.
