Case Study: CSC (42six) achieves sub-30-day Big Data application development with Cloudera

CSC Expedites Big Data Application Development for Government

42six, a CSC subsidiary that builds software and systems for the U.S. Intelligence Community and Department of Defense, created EzBake to help agencies migrate analytics and data-processing apps to cloud-based enterprise data hubs. Facing exponential data growth, siloed legacy applications, strict security and compliance demands, and limited developer time and budgets, agencies struggled to move production workloads to distributed platforms and to share data across organizations.

EzBake, built on Cloudera Enterprise, provides a PaaS-like framework with built-in object-level security and support for technologies like Impala, Spark, Accumulo, Storm and Kafka, making it easy to deploy and query data across stores. The result: developers can start work within an hour and deliver mission-capable applications in under 30 days (vs. 6–8 months previously), spend 80% of their time innovating instead of managing infrastructure, achieve near 10x scalability, and support hundreds of simultaneous projects with standardized federal-grade security.
