Red PNDA Sandbox v1 now available on Cisco dCloud!

[lamarsh]

Overview

PNDA brings together a number of open-source technologies to provide a simple, scalable, open platform for network data analytics. Red PNDA is a smaller, simpler subset of PNDA that provides a set of components in a PNDA-like environment for development, education, and demonstration. Its lightweight design can run on a laptop, which enables you to familiarize yourself with the core data-ingest mechanism of PNDA (Kakfa/AVRO), as well as the data-exploration tools: Jupyter, OpenTSDB and Grafana. This PNDA environment includes Apache Spark and Hbase, but it doesn’t include the heavy components, such as the Hadoop infrastructure and distributed processing. There is also a network-related dataset (BGP updates from the Internet) and an accompanying tutorial Juypter notebook to help you get started. PNDA is a Linux Foundation collaborative project based on the Apache ecosystem. For more information about Red PNDA, refer to https://github.com/pndaproject/red-pndaon GitHub.
