Big Data: IBM InfoSphere BigInsights Basics

I am explaining here why you need IBM infoSphere. You all know about what is file system in Hadoop.
Hadoop is a distributed file system and data processing engine that is designed to handle extremely high volumes of data in any structure.
In simpler terms, just imagine that you've got dozens, or even hundreds (or thousands!) of individual computers racked and networked together. Each computer (often referred to as a node in Hadoop-speak) has its own processors and a dozen or so 2TB or 3TB hard disk drives.

All of these nodes are running software that unifies them into a single cluster, where, instead of seeing the individual computers, you see an extremely large volume where you can store your data.

The beauty of this Hadoop system is that you can store anything in this space: millions of digital image scans of mortgage contracts, days and weeks of security camera footage, trillions of sensor-generated log records, or all of the operator transcription notes from a call center. 

This ingestion of data, without worrying about the data model, is actually a key tenet of the NoSQL movement.

IBM InfoSphere BigInsights


BigInsights features Apache Hadoop and its related open source projects as a core component. This is informally known as the IBM Distribution for Hadoop. IBM remains committed to the integrity of these open source projects and will ensure 100 percent compatibility with them.
BigInsights is IBM Open Source for Hadoop
This fidelity to open source provides a number of benefits. For people who have developed code against other 100 percent open source–compatible distributions, their applications will also run on BigInsights, and vice versa. This open source compatibility has enabled IBM to amass over 100 partners, including dozens of software vendors, for BigInsights.

Simply put, if the software vendor uses the libraries and interfaces for open source Hadoop, they'll work with BigInsights as well.

How to Fix Python Syntax Errors Quickly

In Python, you can call parsing errors Syntax errors. How to fix the syntax errors quickly, I can show in this post. Also, check Python Syntax Errors Cheat Sheet. Python Syntax Error. If you run the Python code, the interpreter first parses the logic. If any errors are found, it is the developer's responsibility to fix them. Courtesy: Python documentation. >>> while True print ( 'Hello world' ) File "<stdin>" , line 1 while True print ( 'Hello world' ) ^ SyntaxError : invalid syntax How to Fix the Syntax Error First, check for the line number. In the above case, it is '1'. Then look for the symbol '^'. The issue is at the PRINT function. The reason is before the PRINT function you need a colon ':'. That is the reason, you are getting errors. This is a syntax error. Find below the corrected logic: >>> while True : print ( 'Hello world' ) File "<

I have shared 7 amazing AWS interview questions for your quick reference. 1). What is AWS? Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides on-demand computing resources and services in the cloud, with pay-as-you-go pricing. For example, you can run a server on AWS that you can log on to, configure, secure, and run just as you would a server that's sitting in front of you 2). What you can do with AWS? Store public or private data. Host a static website. These websites use client-side technologies (such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) to display content that doesn't change frequently. A static website doesn't require server-side technologies (such as PHP and ASP.NET). Host a dynamic website or web app. These websites include classic three-tier applications, with web, application, and database tiers. Support students or online training programs. Process business and scientific data. Handle peak loads. AWS Questions 3). What is the Security group? A security group acts as a virtual fi
