I am planning to form this group to have hands on all Distributed Databases technologies and build our own hadoop cluster and use various hadoop flavors including Hadoop,HDFS,Hive,Pig,HQL. Also have hands on all Nosql Technologies like Cassandra,MongoDB etc. We would also like to go over R programming tool as part of Haddop Analysis. We would like to compare Hadoop vs any Relational DB and MPP Dbs to find some of the use cases where it could really helpful . Also we would like to solve some Indu …

Bay Area Storm Users is a group for developers and companies using Twitter's Storm real-time data processing and DRPC framework. We get together to discuss best practices, usage patterns, and to exchange ideas. Storm is a distributed realtime computation system. Similar to how Hadoop provides a set of general primitives for doing batch processing, Storm provides a set of general primitives for doing realtime computation. Storm is simple, can be used with any programming language, and is a lot of …

This group meets monthly to discuss different ways to use Cassandra to scale your website

Techniques, tips and tools for heterogenous computing, from mobile to HPC applications. Learn from practicing engineers, get hints on how to optimize your applications directly from key architects. Multi-language, on multiple ISA's. So why another group? Hetergenous Computing is really broad - discrete and integrated GPUs, DSPs, FPGAs and CPUs - and the resulting applications, and ecosystems. We are looking at what is takes to move these technologies into mainstream computing - from smartphones …

Data Center Technologies? Technologies Flowing Through Data Centers? How Does A Data Center Make Their Money?

We are Aerospike.  Our group is focused on having discussions around scaling real-time, high transaction and low latency NoSQL database systems. We will have guest speakers talk about their real world experiences and learned techniques around building and managing mission critical businesses that realize 100% up-time. Collaborate with peers trying to solve the same complex problems that arise when you bet your business on your infrastructure.

Data Science! It's all the talk these days! Our team, 0xdata, wants you to join the discussion about our new fast analytics engine, H2O. H20 is ran on top of HDFS. H20 makes it possible to learn bigdata at scale. H20 guarantees one thing: move code, not data. move fast. Join our group! Join the discussion!

Riak is a enterprise grade NoSQL database, distinct from MongoDB, Cassandra and Couchbase.

We have Hadoop meetups that brings awareness about Hadoop Ecosystem to an extent or that discusses about the future enhancements in Hadoop and products and things that can be done. But there is no proper meetup that can provide perspective of a real Hadoop Developer to the current market that can address any level of knowledge seeker. Also there is no meetup group where one actually working on Hadoop Ecosystem can discuss common issues they face and ask for help. This meetup group overcomes thes …

What is CloudStack? Apache CloudStack (Incubating) is open source software designed to deploy and manage large networks of virtual machines, as a highly available, highly scalable, hypervisor agnostic Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud computing platform. CloudStack is used by a number of service providers to offer public cloud services, and by many companies to provide an on-premise (private) cloud offerings. Apache CloudStack is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foun …

This group is open to all those interested in Apache Cassandra, Big Data, Hadoop, Hive, Solr, Hector, Open Source, NoSQL, DataStax, Apache Pig, and high scalability computing. Let's get together and share what we know.

BASPIG is a systems-programming interest group for folks in the Silicon Valley area. If you're into programming that maxes out machine perf, works against the bare metal, self-modifies, hypervises, takes in a language, compiles, blits, message passes, saturates available bandwidth, routes, scales, replicates, reaches consensus, dispatches kernels to cores, interprets, JITs, or self-hosts, this is the group for you. We intend to have regularly scheduled talks on prodigious systems-programming top …

Hazelcast is an open source in-memory data grid that helps you to build Highly Scalable and Available applications. Join this group if you want to learn more about Hazelcast, in-memory data grids and some similar technologies. Let's share our ideas, work on case studies and dive into the technology.
