  15. Customer Success Stories • Multi-Use Customer with Dynamic cluster: 60 nodes Healthcare Hybrid Hadoop and HPC cluster • Existing Linux cluster running on heterogeneous hardware managed by StackIQ • Added an additional 10 Hadoop nodes followed by 53 nodes • Production Node failures requiring automated repair With StackIQ: • Holistic Management • Dynamic Personalization • Intelligent Automation

  16. Customer Success Stories • New Hadoop user planning to scale: 60 nodes 550 nodes Healthcare Communications 550-node Hadoop project at major wireless carrier Hybrid Hadoop and HPC cluster • 55 nodes growing to 4 clusters totaling 550 nodesrunning Hadoop – heterogeneous hardware & software • Evaluated existing general data center management tools and vendor-specific “cluster” management tools and determined they were not sufficient • Small cluster proved node repair and upgrades un-sustainable With StackIQ: • Scalability • Holistic Management • Intelligent Automation

  17. Customer Success Stories • Existing Hadoop user requiring scale, stability and retention: 60 nodes 550 nodes Financial Services Healthcare Communications 1,000 nodes Beat Red Hat Satellite Server & Puppet in Bake Off Hybrid Hadoop and HPC cluster 550-node Hadoop project at major wireless carrier • Expansion to four heterogeneous clusters with a new server type required significant manual effort • A combination of Red Hat Satellite Server, homegrown scripts, and Hadoop specific management tools failed multiple times and negatively impacted the business • Downtime and Degradation = $8 million in annual costs for a business critical cluster With StackIQ: • Flexibility • Intelligent Automation • Stability

  18. StackIQ Cluster Manager

  19. Fully Automated Installation • Assume nothing • StackIQ Cluster Manager installs all the bits (e.g., OS, libraries, application software) and configures all the services (e.g., network, firewall, disks, application services). • Other management tools usually assume all nodes in the cluster have a base OS installed and they are up on the network • Step 1: Install Cluster Manager node • Step 2: Install backend nodes • The Cluster Manager node is ready to install all backend nodes on first boot • Step 3: DONE! • All backend nodes are fully configured on first boot

  20. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots Global View Monitoring • Left hand column shots contexts for viewing and interacting with the cluster (Global, Appliance, Rack, Host) • The Global Monitoring tab is shown here with roll up data for the cluster

  21. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots Asset Management • Cluster-wide device validation and asset inventory

  22. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots Spreadsheet driven host configuration, application definition, and cluster topology • Host Inventory • Attributes • Define Middleware Topology via Spreadsheet • E.g. Where are my Hadoop Nameservers? • E.g. What is my JVM heapsize for Hive? • Global Config • Host-specific Config • System Architect design the spec • Admin can apply the spec to the cluster

  23. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots Global View Alerting • The Alert box at the bottom provides notices to the administrator on system events

  24. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots Disk Management • The Partition tab shows how disk partitioning is handled dynamically for heterogeneous hardware • Optimized RAID controller configuration automated per host/stack

  25. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots Disk Management • The Partition tab shows how disk partitioning is handled dynamically for heterogeneous hardware • Optimized RAID controller configuration automated per host/stack

  26. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots Cluster Validation • The Validation tab allows you to run cluster-wide or sub-cluster tests on Network, Memory, and, Disk performance • A graph shows results with easily identifiable outliers

  27. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots Replace or Reprovision a Server • Replacing or reprovisioning a server is a single click operation

  28. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots • Example: Hadoop • If a Hadoop Roll is chosen, StackIQ will automate installation and configuration of native Hadoop services

  29. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots • Analyze System Utilization • Example • Launch a Hadoop job • View global utilization metrics • View host utilization metrics • For every host in the cluster • Sample every disk, cpu, network for % utilization • Store samples on the local node • Record samples for 5 years • Global Visualization • Interactive (zoom-able) table view • Last 10 minutes of cluster activity • Can be extremely dense • Real-Time Host Visualization • Scrolling graph • Shows utilization for all devices on the host

  30. StackIQ Cluster Manager Screenshots • Analyze System Utilization • Example • Launch a Hadoop job • View global utilization metrics • View host utilization metrics • For every host in the cluster • Sample every disk, cpu, network for % utilization • Store samples on the local node • Record samples for 5 years • Global Visualization • Interactive (zoom-able) table view • Last 10 minutes of cluster activity • Can be extremely dense • Real-Time Host Visualization • Scrolling graph • Shows utilization for all devices on the host

  31. Cluster & Application Provisioning: Defined stack management with the flexibility to integrate and compliment enterprise standards and processes, speeds time-to-value and improves reliability Cluster & Application Configuration: Automating package management and configuration reduces dependencies on scripting and speeds change requests and repairs Support for Heterogeneous Hardware: Maximize Return-On-Infrastructure by making sure nodes are brought into production rapidly and consistently. Support for Multiple Applications: Repurposing of resources allows the enterprise to dynamically respond to the changing and varied requirements of the Lines of Business. Cluster & Application Diagnostics & Repair: Give business users assurance of maximum uptime and maximum performance with given resources Five StackIQ Production Use Cases & their Benefits in Production
