As a part of its strategy to collaborate and contribute to open source, Huawei India R&D Center has announced some collaboration initiatives.
The India R&D centre in Bengaluru has contributed to CarbonData project which was formally incubated to Apache Software Foundation by Huawei in June 2016.
Apache CarbonData is a columnar and Hadoop native data-store for processing heavy analytical workloads and detailed queries on big data. What makes Carbon Data so special is its unified storage format which is designed and developed from the ground up to provide faster response for different user queries. CarbonData, within 6 months of its incubation into Apache, has attracted more than 60 active contributors with steadily growing user base and is becoming a unified storage solution for big data analytics.
Most organisations use different data-stores and query engines to meet their use cases of batch Queries (Big scan), Interactive Analysis Queries (Multi-Dimensional OLAP) and Operational Queries (Random Access / Narrow Scan) which results in duplication of data and processing, thereby increasing the cost, according to market watchers. This is one of the key challenges that CarbonData intends to solve.
Further, the R&D center has contributed to open source projects in Cloud, Big data and analytics and other areas, as a part of its commitment to open source technologies.
