Question

Where does Okera sit in my infrastructure stack?

Answer

Note: The response below may be outdated. For detailed information about Okera architecture, consult the updated documentation found here.

Okera provides access data to underlying data sources. It provides functionality for end-user query access to data using various applications (BI tools) or programmatically (Apache Spark or Python). 

Typically the provisioning of data to the underlying data stores (ex: S3 or HDFS) is done by common ingest pipelines, which have full and direct access to the data.

The diagram below shows how Okera interacts with big data architecture.
