Big Data Management Solutions In A Bigger Way With Hadoop

The journey to destination of success is has become quite a hard task today. Even with advent of new technologies, that would support in building a new way to reach the goals, the task of achieving one’s aim in reality has become quite complicated. The complexity of an organization structure has originated a task of managing business in a new way. This management also includes within itself management of data, which could be used for the benefit of an organization. The growing need across the world has also led to data inundation. This calls for careful management of data and thoughtfully processing it in a manner that could be utilised in correctly formulating the plans and policies of an organization.

As the workflow in an organization increases, there is also a flood of data. This data needs to be carefully stored, processed and transmitted using a platform that is both cost efficient and structured. This gave rise to systems that could store huge data online, which could be accessed any time by the user. Hadoop is a well recognized platform that has the capacity to hold on humungous data inundation with ease. Moreover, it also processes data as per the preference of client, which can be accessed by them anytime they want. The Chief Architect of Cloudera, Doug Cutting, was inspired by the publication of Google, where it stated that the past few years have seen an avalanche of data. Therefore, there had arisen a need to build platform for storing such data. 

Every day, almost 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created, which are required to be stored and properly processed to give useful information to the management. Apache Hadoop has been built on the notes to provide support for data management process across the globe. It is relatively inexpensive compared to other cloud servers, which charges for various features it provides to its client. On seeing the massive flow of data daily, business organisation too fall short of systems that could store and process data. Therefore, Hadoop provides an effective solution to those organizations which faces hardware crunch. One could virtually store any kind of data from files to pictures. The data can be structured or unstructured. There is no limit as to data storage, which will be stored in standard servers and such data can be gathered from such servers anytime.

Every data have some finances attached to it and if it can be structured in a proper way then such finance can be extracted out from them and converted into revenue. This task can be very intensive in nature and requires expert handling. Hadoop provides such expertise in structuring one’s data and providing more meaning to it. Hadoop provides the platform which could handle ‘Big Data’ and convert them into useful information. In fact it also defines relationship between data, which one would have never imagined. Moreover, it is quite cost effective from client’s point of view that is looking for dedicated server hosting option proving high quality service. 

It is a one stop solution to score on scalability feature with reliability. Hadoop has already changed the system of data management for many big enterprises and offered them with innovation driven service. Hadoop environment is backed highly skilled technicians and experts, which have been selected from across the globe. Looking at the industry structure today, it is imperative to have proper system installed, which would look after the data management function. Hadoop is one such functionary in the Internet domain that would look after this function providing unique solutions.

Why you should go for a Tier-4 Data Center

Tier-4 data centers are the best bet today as they are built to withstand earthquakes, floods, fires, and have several physical security zone.

Here is a simple analogy to answer this question. Given the opportunity, would you stay in a five star hotel or a four star? Though unrelated, this analogy gives a very clear sense of direction, even in the case of data centers.

Data centers are classified into 4 tiers on the basis of several performance criteria:

• Tier-1: A guarantee of 99.671% availability (28.8 hours of downtime per year)
• Tier-2: A guarantee of 99.749% availability (22 hours of downtime per year)
• Tier-3: A guarantee of 99.982% availability (1.6 hours of downtime per year)
• Tier-4: A guarantee of 99.995% availability (only 26.28 minutes of downtime per year)

While most data centers in India are tier-3. Tier-4 data centers present a whole new paradigm of reliability. The comparison table below explains why.

Certifying Data Centers

Data centers are certified as tier-3 or -4 by certifying bodies like TIA and Uptime. A TIA certified data center is inspected on close to 1,800 parameters, some of them being the data center's design, the engineering design, the history of natural calamities that have occurred in the data center's location, the cabling and even greenhouse gas emissions. It is after these multi-point checks that a data center is certified with a tier-4 rating. There are several tier-3 data centers in the market today that advertise themselves as ‘Tier-4 Ready', but these facilities have not gone through the microscopic inspection of a certifying agency.

Tier-3 data center is fine was the opinion a few years ago. This opinion is driven by companies from developed countries like the US and Europe where the utilities like power and water are robust and there's hardly any downtime. Whereas in India, we face power cuts and water shortage. How can a tier-3 system give the same uptime in India as in western countries? Not possible.

Tier-3 is a ‘single system' and tier-4 is a ‘system + system'. They have dual storage capacity than that of tier-3. Building structure is more robust and security features are better. If your applications are mission critical, and you would lose business because of an hour's downtime, tier-4 data centers are your best bet. They are built to withstand earthquakes, floods, fires, and have several physical security zones to defend your data from human intrusions.
