Description
This talk gives a brief overview of 2-3 of the main tools & languages which
are used at Google for Web-scale data-analysis. The main part will then
focus on a column-oriented datastore developed as one of the central
components of PowerDrill - an internal Google analysis project. PowerDrill
achieves large speed-ups that enable a highly interactive Web UI where it
is common that a single mouse click leads to processing a trillion values
in the underlying dataset.
