500+ Terabytes New Data Everyday on Facebook

Posted on August 24, 2012 03:41 AM

Orignal Source:http://codingvilla.com/500-terabytes-new-data-facebook-single-news-775.aspx

2.7 billion Like actions and 300 million photos per day, and it scans approximately 105 terabytes of data each half hour. Plus it gave the first details on its new “Project Prism”.

 

 

VP of Engineering Jay Parikh gave details about the need and with question mark situation to Facebook by saying:

 “Big data really is about having insights and making an impact on your business. If you aren’t taking advantage of the data you’re collecting, then you just have a pile of data, you don’t have big data.”

One more stat Facebook opened up, that over 100 pet bytes of data are stored in a single Hadoop disk cluster, and Parikh even told:

“We think we operate the single largest Hadoop system in the world.” In a hilarious moment, when asked “Is your Hadoop cluster bigger than Yahoo’s?”,

And most intrusting gossip action also came to notice when Parikh proudly wink with yes.

Added more:

“No one will care you have 100 petabytes of data in your warehouse”.

 The speed of intake keeps running and

“the world is getting hungrier and hungrier for data.”

 

 

Even researcher does not find it more useful for facebook. It get ahead of on the advantage of advertisers. Parikh said added about:

 

 

 “We’re tracking how ads are doing across different dimensions of users across our site, based on gender, age, interests [so we can say] ‘actually this ad is doing better in California so we should show more of this ad in California to make it more successful.”

 

there’s “Project Prism”. Right now Facebook in fact get keep it all live. Even revolving consumer database in a single data center, with anothers used for being without a job and other data. When the main lump gets too big for one data center it has to stir the whole thing to another that’s been lingering to fit it. This transfer around is a waste of resources.

Parikh says:

 

 

“Project Prism lets us take this monolithic warehouse…and physically separate but maintain one view of the data.”

 

 

The means the live dataset can be share, and hosted across Facebook’s data centers in California, Virginia, Oregon, North Carolina, and Sweden.

 

 

on the inside, Facebook has selected not to partition data or upright barriers between dissimilar business units like ads and purchaser support. Product developers can seem at data across departments to assess whether their newest little tweak augmented time-on-site, set off all criticism, or produce ad ticks.

 

 

Users might be a little small piece uneasy about the thought that Facebook employees could look so profound into their bustle, but Facebook assured  there are frequent protections against abuse. All data access is logged so Facebook can pathway which workers are looking at what.

 

Only those working on structure products that necessitate data access get it, and there’s an rigorous training course around satisfactory use. And if an employee pries where they’re not theoretical to, they’re ablaze. Parikh stated muscularly:

 

 

“We have a zero-tolerance policy.”

People Without Facebook Account Are Suspicious

All scenes and series are almost altering now. We like to get each thing and each key in seconds. We are in office, we demand all response in seconds behind any order, and whatever it is email or any forward statement to employees.

 

Such as in social portals like twitter, google plus and on facebook.we love to add current status and images in few minutes. Whatever in situations, we are carrying laptop, processors,  ipad , iphone etc.

 

Slashdot flagged a German news story in which an specialist distinguished that accumulation of slayer Anders Breivik and James Holmes both not have a good deal of a social media attendance. What are you assuming? Foremost to the termination, in Slashdot’s wording, that

 “Not having a Facebook account could be the first sign that you are a mass murderer.”

 

That’s a crumb intense.

 

But one more thing it is not deal of affection with facebook,if you are not carrying any account you can destroy your all moral as well, as I noticed many of more examples like who are not having any account on facebook.i also take it just like some silly state because it’s nothing more than to bring twist for facebook or making enlarge the business for social group.

Behind all this affirmed statement what users thought and how they add their views. Let’s have a look:

 

“Ha. I'm that guy. No social media page and an extremely common first and last name. If you Google my real name you get hundreds of results, but I ain't one”

megaman78978:

 

“I have a name that is literally shared by NOBODY IN THE WORLD. Hell every time I Google my name, I only get results of myself. And most of it is stupid blog comments when I was too young to realize the importance of privacy.

I've tried my best to remove as much as I can. But I know it's gonna bite me in the ass someday.

 

 

Edit: Grammar. I also want to point out that I absolutely love my name. Surname is common enough but first name is shared by no one in the world. 7 letter first name.”

SUPREME1:

 

"I never had a MySpace page... nor have I ever had a Facebook page. I signed up for Twitter a few months back, quickly posted a single tweet, and then never used it again.

I AM SUSPECT"

 

Even I also read many blogs and took experts views too, that all time narrate me that the gap of social media, as can be in many forms like twitter,facebook,google plus etc can invite you to be psychopath. So being stay away to social media can make you suspicious too, as many queries can occurs, like:

 

Why you are having space from normal life?

 

 

 

Which sort of activity makes you enable to have gap from normal community

 

Well at the same point, other thinks, there is no privacy. End of all solitude portions of lives.

 

It also makes satisfy to many questions as easy to get all normal info that appeals you to know who you are? From where you are? What are task you act in daily routine for earning. As even edge social info sharing tempts you to get new chance to visit places and folks.
