The MapR Data Science Refinery：Scalable Data Science Toolkit

The MapR Data Science Refinery

The MapR Data Science Refinery is a suite of tooling to enable you to distill insights from your data and turn them into operational next-gen applications that lead to actionable changes for your business.

With the MapR Data Science Refinery, MapR provides businesses with a suite of data science tools to help them distill insights from their data and turn those insights into operational next-gen applications.

MapR has recognized the need for agile, containerized solutions that can scale to fit the needs of all types of data science teams. Within the MapR platform, support is offered for popular open source tooling in a preconfigured offering that can be distributed to many data science teams across a multitenant environment.

The MapR Data Science Refinery is an easy-to-deploy and scalable data science toolkit with native access to all platform assets and superior out-of-the-box security.

The MapR Data Science Refinery offers:

• Access to All Platform Assets - The MapR FUSE-based POSIX Client allows app servers, web servers, and other client nodes and apps to read and write data directly and securely to a MapR cluster, like a Linux filesystem. In addition, connectors are provided for interacting with both MapR-DB and MapR-ES via Apache Spark connectors.

• Superior Security - The MapR Platform is secure by default, and Apache Zeppelin on MapR leverages and integrates with this security layer using the built-in capabilities provided by the MapR Persistent Application Container (PACC).

• Extensibility - Apache Zeppelin is paired with the Helium framework to offer pluggable visualization capabilities.

• Simplified Deployment - A preconfigured Docker container provides the ability to leverage MapR as a persistent data store. The Dockerfile is also available, allowing users to customize the image as needed to support specific application needs.
