ATLAS DCS Analysis with Apache Spark and Jupyter Notebooks
ATLAS DCS Analysis with Apache Spark and Jupyter Notebooks The ATLAS Detector Control System (DCS) at CERN is essential for ensuring optimal detector performance. Each year, the system generates tens of billions of time-stamped sensor readings, presenting considerable challenges for large-scale data analysis. Although these data are stored in Oracle databases that excel in real-time

Experiences of Using Alluxio with Spark
Experiences of Using Alluxio with Spark Introduction Alluxio refers to itself as an “Open Source Memory Speed Virtual Distributed Storage” platform. It sits between the storage and processing framework layers in the distributed computing ecosystem and claims to heavily improve performance when multiple jobs are reading/writing from/to the same data. This post will cover some
