(10月3日，在硅谷最牛的大數據分析公司Wikibon組織的會議上，Siliconangel認為Transwarp 已經具備進入美國的能力。)

中國的經濟和科技產業在過去的幾十年中得到了快速的發展。這對全球范圍內的競爭有何意義?我們的中國同行們又在做什么樣的創新呢?

在硅谷視角傳媒(SiliconANGLE Media)團隊制作theCUBE節目中，主持人Dave Vellante和George Gilbert與星環科技的聯合創始人兼CTO孫元浩共同探討了星環的產品以及和美國的Hadoop廠商在規模上的比較。

Hadoop核心上的SQL層

星環科技提供多個建立在同一個Hadoop核心上的專有產品。與眾不同的是，這個Hadoop和核心本身是開源的。Transwarp Data Hub是中國頂尖的Hadoop發行版。Transwarp Data Hub追求以客戶需求為導向，利用在Hadoop核心上打造SQL引擎，使得企業客戶能夠將原有平臺上的傳統應用輕松遷移到大數據平臺上。

星環科技的其他專有產品也采用了相似的策略。同時，Gilbert注意到,相對美國的大數據用戶，中國用戶更關心大數據帶來的實際效果。

規模

讓人印象最為深刻的是星環科技部署的大數據平臺的規模。孫元浩提到星環科技為一家大型運營商打造的大容量數據平臺存儲了“20PB”的數據。同時，星環科技的產品服務于各種規模的場景，據其網站介紹，可以提供“10GB到100PB”的部署。星環科技已經為成為國際上的大數據廠商有力競爭者做好準備。星環科技攜其專有產品進軍美國市場的過程值得我們關注。

Transwarp Technologies uses open source and non-proprietary Hadoop core

writer：Andrew Ruggiero

The Chinese economy and technology industry have been booming in the past several decades. What does this mean for global competition, and where are our Chinese counterparts innovating?

Dave Vellante and George Gilbert, cohosts of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, sat down with Yuanhao Sun, cofounder and CTO of Transwarp Technology, Inc., to gain insight on what Transwarp offers and how it compares in size to U.S. Hadoop vendors.

SQL layer on Hadoop core

Transwarp offers several proprietary products that are built upon a Hadoop core. What’s unique about this Hadoop core is that it is open source and non-proprietary. Transwarp Data Hub is the number one Hadoop distribution available in China; it’s specific to customer demands. This distribution makes it easy for the company’s customers to transition their legacy applications from old infrastructure to new infrastructure. This is done by a SQL engine layer on top of a Hadoop core.

Similar methodology is used to apply other proprietary products, and as Gilbert noticed Chinese customers appear to be more interested in the results compared to their American contemporaries.

Scale

The incredible scale of this deployment is what might be most impressive about Transwarp Technologies. Sun mentioned an example “20 petabyte” customer launch for a large telco that requires large data storage requirements to amass its data. The scales vary quite widely for its distribution, being able to handle “10GB to 100PB” deployments according to its website.

Transwarp is poised to be an international Big Data competitor, and it’ll be worth looking at its entry into the U.S. market with some of its proprietary solutions.
