<span style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-size: 18px;">Realizing the Benefits of Cloud: Cloud Migration & Application Optimization</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: Tahoma;">As AWS continues to expand, enterprise customers are increasingly looking to our partner ecosystem to assist in migrating their workloads to the cloud. This session covers migration estimation, data migration, critical path activities, migration automation, and best practices for large-scale application migrations. We will use real examples from our consulting partners and AWS Professional Services to illustrate how to move workloads to the cloud while modernizing the associated applications to take advantage of AWS’ unique benefits. We will also dive into optimization of your application using AWS Services that are non-intrusive to your application, as well as those that require some application changes but help customers to achieve higher levels of performance, high availability, and scalability. After attending this session, you will understand how to estimate a migration effort, understand the most time intensive tasks, the tools available, options for data migration, when to re-host an application and when to re-architect, and how to architect and optimize the end state AWS architecture.</span></div>

Migrating large fleets of legacy applications to AWS cloud infrastructure requires careful planning, since each phase needs to balance risk tolerance against the speed of migration.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.8em;">
Through participation in many large-scale migration engagements with customers, AWS Professional Services has developed a set of successful best practices, tools, and techniques that help migration factories optimize speed of delivery and success rate. In this session, we cover the complete lifecycle of an application portfolio migration with special emphasis on how to organize and conduct the assessment and how to identify elements that can benefit from cloud architecture.</div>

After realizing the benefits that AWS has to offer, many Enterprise look for ways to accelerate their migration to the cloud. In beginning this journey they are often faced with a number of challenges such as determining which applications should move, how they should move, and how can they be effectively managed in the cloud. AWS Solution Architects and AWS Professional Services have developed a migration methodology, based on our experiences, to quickly, efficiently, and successfully move enterprise applications to AWS at scale. This session will be pragmatic; covering the challenges, lessons learned, best practices, and end architecture for several large scale migrations done by AWS Global System Integrator partners. This session will also review the approach, tools, and methods that can help Enterprises evolve their cloud transformation programs.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here are some information about EMR:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Job Flow : A Job Flow is an Amazon term for an end-to-end processing of data that occurs through a number of compute steps. A Job Flow is defined by the MapReduce application and input and output parameters. An EMR cluster does not need a Job Flow as data processing can be done interactively using Hive, Pig, Impala, or some other language.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Task group : The task group is optional. The task group instances do not have HDFS storage so data needs to be transferred to these nodes by the master mode. The task group can off load heavy computational work from the core group instances.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. S3 : Amazon s3 is used for the input and output storage of data sets to processed and analyzed.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. AMIs : The EMR cluster nodes are maintained by Amazon. Amazon regularly updates the EC2 AMIs with newer releases of Hadoop, security patches, and more.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. Map and reduce : The map procedure takes data as input and filters and sorts the data down to a set of key/value pairs that will be processed by the reduce procedure. The reduce procedure performs a summary procedure of grouping, sorting, or counting the key/value pairs. For example, the map procedure parses out the date and time and treats this data element as a key. Then, a reduce procedure can determine a count of each day (date and time). </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. s3cmd : s3cmd is used at the OS command to load data into S3.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">7. Job Flow Scheduling : To schedule a Job Flow to run every hour you can configure cron to execute the script.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">8. EMR technologies supported as steps : EMR supports six technologies to be used in steps in the EMR cluster:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a. Hive : Open source data warehouse package. The Hive Query Language (HQL) is a lot like RDBMS SQL. It is best for organizations with strong SQL skills. Also has extensions to support direct access to DynamoDB to directly load EMR from DynamoDB.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">b. Custom Jar : Core Hadoop Jave libraries preloaded into the EMR cluster.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">c. Streaming : Allows you to write Amazon EMR Job Flows in Ruby, Perl, Python, PHP, R, Bash, or C++. Convert an existing ELT job to run in EMR using streaming.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">d. Pig : Pig is a data flow engine that is preloaded in the EMR cluster. Good fit for organization with strong SQL skills.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">e. Impala : Impala is similar to Hive but works faster in certain use cases. More here: <a href="http://docs.aws.amazon.com/ElasticMapReduce/latest/DeveloperGuide/emr-impala.html">http://docs.aws.amazon.com/ElasticMapReduce/latest/DeveloperGuide/emr-impala.html</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">g. HBase : HBase is efficient way of storing large quantities of sparse data using column-based compression and storage. In addition, HBase provides fast lookup of data because data is stored in-memory instead of on disk. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">9. Filter statement : A Map custom JAR application uses the filter statement which is like a WHERE clause on a SQL statement.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">10. GROUP: A Reduce custom JAR application uses the GROUP statement which is like a GROUP clause in a SQL statement.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">11. Limited structure data and late binding : Unlike data warehousing solutions based upon OLAP or RDBMS, Amazon EMR clusters work with unstructured data and perform late binding of the schema.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">12. Performance on small data sets : When running Hive queries against EMR, the run time will appear shocking slow against small data sets when compared to running against a traditional RDBMS. The structure nature of the data sets and indexing capabilities make the RDBMS faster. EMR (MapReduce) is made for large , unstructured data sets.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">13. Mahout : Mahout is supported in EMR.</span></div>

Once a package has been downloaded from the Amazon Linux AMI repository to an instance, any further actions taken with that package are up to the customer who launched the instance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; widows: 2;">Data Pipeline provides a “terminateAfter” functionality for all activities, including EmrActivity. It is possible to set terminateAfter to be relative to the start time. It is all possible to wrap your existing EMR jobflow in a Data Pipeline EmrActivity and then set the terminateAfter on the EmrCluster object. </span></div>
