Hunk: Splunk Analytics for Hadoop Beta
From the post:
Hunk is a new software product to explore, analyze and visualize data in Hadoop. Building upon Splunk’s years of experience with big data analytics technology deployed at thousands of customers, it drives dramatic improvements in the speed and simplicity of interacting with and analyzing data in Hadoop without programming, costly integrations or forced data migrations.
- Splunk Virtual Indexing (patent pending) – Explore, analyze and visualize data across multiple Hadoop distributions as if it were stored in a Splunk index
- Easy to Deploy and Drive Fast Value – Simply point Hunk at your Hadoop cluster and start exploring data immediately
- Interactive Analysis of Data in Hadoop – Drive deep analysis, pattern detection and find anomalies across terabytes and petabytes of data. Correlate data to spot trends and identify patterns of interest
I think this is the line that will catch most readers:
Hunk is compatible with virtually every leading Hadoop distribution. Simply point it at your Hadoop cluster and start exploring and analyzing your data within minutes.
Professional results may take longer but results within minutes will please most users.
