With modern businesses dealing with an ever-increasing volume of data, and an expanding set of data sources, the data engineering process that enables analysis, visualization, and reporting only becomes more important.

When considering running data engineering workloads in the public cloud, there are capabilities which enable different operational models from on-premises deployments. The key factors here are the presence of a distinct storage layer within the cloud environment, and the ability to provision compute resources on-demand (e.g.: with Amazon’s S3 and EC2 respectively).

Categories: Hadoop How-to Impala Kudu

Impala is designed to deliver insight on data in Apache Hadoop in real time. As data often lands in Hadoop continuously in certain use cases (such as time-series analysis, real-time fraud detection, real-time risk detection, and so on), it’s desirable for Impala to query this new “fast” data with minimal delay and without interrupting running queries.

In this blog post, you will learn an approach for continuous loading of data into Impala via HDFS,
