Bigstream’s new Acceleration 2.0 solution allows you to upgrade your Apache Spark cluster 80% less expensively than the way most organizations expand today.

Big data systems have thrived because of the ability to spread large data workloads across many computing nodes. Apache Spark is a leading example, with a fast developing open-source based platform that optimizes across large clusters of computers. The promise of infinite horizontal scaling is appealing, imagining that any capacity or performance obstacle can be met by adding more servers to your cluster.

In this webinar recording, we discuss the limitations of this perspective and the resulting inefficiency and overspending. We introduce better ways to scale a big data platform. Hardware and software acceleration technology can turbo boost an existing Spark cluster and do so much faster than a traditional scale-out project. With Bigstream’s latest Acceleration 2.0 technology we present game-changing economics, reducing the total cost of ownership of Spark expansion by over 80%!
