MapR Technologies integrates Elasticsearch with MapR Distribution

MapR Technologies and Elasticsearch have announced integration of Elasticsearch’s real-time search and analytics capability with the MapR Distribution for Apache Hadoop, enabling customers to search and store tremendous amounts of information in real time.

The MapR Distribution helps customers realize the benefits of Hadoop at a lower cost of ownership than other distributions while enabling the widest number of use cases. With the combination of MapR and Elasticsearch, developers gain a scalable, distributed architecture to quickly perform search and discovery across tremendous amounts of information. The combined solution is already in use at the leading enterprise companies, including Solutionary, the leading pure-play managed security service provider, and several Fortune 100 financial services institutions.

“MapR customers are embracing the enterprise data hub architecture, where they consolidate many terabytes of unstructured information from across their organization. Elasticsearch and MapR together give customers production-ready technologies that enable real-time access for retrieving and analyzing big data stored in Hadoop,” said Jack Norris, Chief Marketing Officer, MapR Technologies.

With nearly 500,000 downloads every month, Elasticsearch has quickly become one of the top open-source search solutions in the world. Elasticsearch’s real-time analytics, logging, and search features combined with Hadoop make for unlimited possibilities for anyone working with vast volumes of data.
