Innovative enterprises have progressed from proof-of-concepts to pro-duction deployment and expansion with Apache™ Hadoop® to evolve their business and stay ahead of the competition. Hadoop solves many of the big data problems enterprises face by accommodating the ever-growing data volumes and new data sources for all business functions. However, extracting insights from the data stored in Hadoop can get cumbersome.

Hunk brings Splunk software’s big data analytics stack to your data in Hadoop and NoSQL data stores. Explore, analyze, and visualize data, create dashboards and share reports from a flexible analytics platform that integrates directly with the MapR cluster. Simply point Hunk at a MapR cluster and start exploring data immediately.

Schema-on-the-fly technology means that you don’t need to know anything about the data in advance. Hunk automatically adds structure and identifies fields of interest at search time, such as keywords, pat-terns over time, top values, and more. Hunk delivers the flexible, inter-active analytics experience that business and IT teams need in working with raw unstructured data in Hadoop.

When you start a query in Hunk, it streams back interim results imme-diately while the MapReduce job continues to run in the background. This delivers a faster, more interactive experience because you can pause and refine queries without having to wait for full MapReduce jobs to complete.
