Big Brains is a speakers series with some of the top minds in Silicon Valley. All are welcome. Just bring your Big Brain along! We'll be hosting at least every other month, if not monthly. Look forward to seeing you at our office for one of our upcoming events in Mountain View.

This group is for everyone interested in real-time access to big data. We welcome developers, data scientists, analysts - everyone trying to figure out how to get access - and analysis - quickly; data in HDFS, S3, NoSQL databases, etc. Why did I form this group? There are a number of interesting Open Source and proprietary solutions trying to provide real-time access to Big Data and a high density of folks here in the Bay Area working on solutions. Industry analysts are saying "this is the year …

This group is an interactive, developer-friendly introduction to analytics, machine learning and data science topics. The focus will be on learning practical techniques to working with data. We will be doing R, Python, Ruby and a little bit of Java/C++. We will also focus on real-life problems in various domains such as healthcare, energy etc. and apply data to solve those problems. Oh, btw - G.O.D.s => Geeking-out on data science. :-) See you there.

Data Science! It's all the talk these days! Our team, 0xdata, wants you to join the discussion about our new fast analytics engine, H2O. H20 is ran on top of HDFS. H20 makes it possible to learn bigdata at scale. H20 guarantees one thing: move code, not data. move fast. Join our group! Join the discussion!

For - IT managers, Ananlyst, Data Warehouse specialist, BI Developers, ETL developers, Data Architects, Business Analyst, BigData specialist, HANA, Hadoop, Hortonworks, Cloudera users

Bay Area Storm Users is a group for developers and companies using Twitter's Storm real-time data processing and DRPC framework. We get together to discuss best practices, usage patterns, and to exchange ideas. Storm is a distributed realtime computation system. Similar to how Hadoop provides a set of general primitives for doing batch processing, Storm provides a set of general primitives for doing realtime computation. Storm is simple, can be used with any programming language, and is a lot of …

Hazelcast is an open source in-memory data grid that helps you to build Highly Scalable and Available applications. Join this group if you want to learn more about Hazelcast, in-memory data grids and some similar technologies. Let's share our ideas, work on case studies and dive into the technology.

This is a group for all Apache Hadoop users interested in solving big data challenges. We'll look at topics from data architecture, to technical deep dives, to the future of Hadoop and everything in between using the knowledge we have at Hortonworks. Want us to come to your area? Suggest a meetup and location.

Hive is a scalable data warehouse infrastructure built on top of Hadoop. It provides tools to enable easy data ETL, a mechanism to put structures on the data, and the capability to querying and analysis of large data sets stored in Hadoop files. Hive defines a simple SQL-like query language, called HiveQL, that enables users familiar with SQL to query the data. At the same time, this language also allows programmers who are familiar with the MapReduce fromwork to be able to plug in their custom …

Meet with students, scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs who are interested in machine learning algorithms. We get together to both study the algorithms and discuss the real-world applications of ML. This is an exciting time for coders that deal with data, so join us!

This is a meetup group for users and contributors to Apache Flume (incubating). Apache Flume is a distributed, reliable, and available service for efficiently collecting, aggregating, and moving large amounts of log data. Its main goal is to deliver data from applications to Apache Hadoop's HDFS. It has a simple and flexible architecture based on streaming data flows. It is robust and fault tolerant with tunable reliability mechanisms and many failover and recovery mechanisms. The system is cent …

Welcome to the new world of health+care! By 2020 both the US and  global healthcare landscape will look dramatically different from the healthcare delivery models of today. We are in a time of exciting and rapid disruption, change and innovation! This community is for anyone interested in the future of health+care. Big data, the cloud, mobile devices and tracking systems present just the "tip" of the iceberg. (Lets not forget the ICD-10, blue button initiative, kiosks, III, HITECH, predictive an …
