Sahara provides a way to build Big Data as a Service on OpenStack, but there are many options and considerations. This presentation introduces our work on benchmarking various solutions, including VM vs. container vs bare-metal, HDFS vs. Swift, and a few others. This was conducted on latest Intel hardware platforms and will provide insights into maturity of BDaaS on OpenStack. We will also share our exploration of the future of BDaaS on OpenStack, including Sahara EDP direction and Sahara integration with OpenStack Manila.
