Evolution of the Data Lake—Implementing Real-Time Change Data in Hadoop

A ten-fold increase in worldwide data by 2025 is one of many predictions about big data. With such growth rates in data, the “data lake” is a very popular concept today. Everybody touts their platform capabilities for the data lake, and it is all about Apache Hadoop. With its proven cost-effective, highly scalable, and reliable means of storing vast data sets on cost-effective commodity hardware regardless of format, it seems to be the ideal analytics repository. However, the power of discovery that comes with the lack of a schema also creates a barrier for integrating well-understood transaction data that is more comfortably stored in a relational database. Rapidly changing data can quickly turn a data lake into a data swamp.
