##Abstract

Node.js and JavaScript are great not only for quickly building simple web apps. This talk will present the tools to build a distributed Big Data platform covering:

• Data queueing with Kafka (and other tools)
• Realtime data process with Storm
• Batch data processing with Hadoop
• Storing data in Cassandra, Redis, CouchDB, MongoDB, and Riak
• Data serialization options (JSON, protobufs, and MsgPack)
• Internal communication with HTTP, hook.io, dnode, and ZeroMQ
• Creating external APIs using the built-in http/https modules, express.js, restify, and hapi

##Speaker Bio

I'm a co-founder at CloudImmunity and a Big Data architect at CrowdStrike. I use node.js and JavaScript when it makes sense and I use other tools when it doesn't :-)
