VoltDB Announces Hadoop Integation

From the announcement:

VoltDB, a leading provider of high-velocity data management systems, today announced the release of VoltDB Integration for Hadoop. The new product functionality, available in VoltDB Enterprise Edition, allows organizations to selectively stream high velocity data from a VoltDB cluster into Hadoop’s native HDFS file system by leveraging Cloudera’s Distribution Including Apache Hadoop (CDH), which has SQL-to-Hadoop integration technology, Apache Sqoop, built in.

“The term ‘big data’ is being applied to a diverse set of data storage and processing problems related to the growing volume, variety and velocity of data and the desire of organizations to store and process data sets in their totality,” said Matt Aslett, senior analyst, enterprise software, The 451 Group. “Choosing the right tool for the job is crucial: high velocity data requires an engine that offers fast throughput and real-time visibility; high volume data requires a platform that can expose insights in massive data sets. Integration between VoltDB and CDH will help organizations to combine two special purpose engines to solve increasingly complex data management problems.”

I can’t imagine a better environment for promotion of topic maps than “big data.” The more data there is processed, the more semantic integration issues will come to the fore. At least to clients paying the bills for sensible answers. It is sorta like putting teenagers in Indy race cars. It won’t take all that long before some of them will decide they need driving lessons.
