How big data is being used to tackle chronic disease in Scotland ? Scotsman.com, November 22, 2017.

Scotland is the leading voice in making use of big data to improve the future of medical sciences. Big data available in scotland has been used for historical research trials to identify the effectiveness of general drugs.Dr Carol K. Clugston, Chief Operating Officer /Director of Professional Services at Glasgow University said that they looked back at the data available for last 20 years to find out what happened to the patients who were on statins. As the datasets available were popular,  it helped them find out what medications that have been on, how many times they have been to their General Practitioner. Big data has even helped identify for what purpose they had to go to the hospital and what prescription they have been cashing in. In future, big data would be used to create tailored medicines instead of the pharmaceutical industry producing general blockbuster drugs.Big data in healthcare might see a complete overhaul with pharma companies producing targeted therapeutics  that will work on specific genetic makeup of the individual and not the complete population.

Hadoop 2.9 Adds Resource Estimator, i-programmer.info, November 24, 2017

The release of the latest version of Hadoop i.e. Hadoop 2.9 brings in novel features like HDF Router based federation, YARN Federation and resource estimator.

i) Resource estimator will evaluate the job resource requirements considering the fact that large portion of jobs (> 60%) are recurring jobs. This will help automatically estimate the job resource requirements depending on the job history runs.

ii) YARN Federation feature will allow developers to scale a single Hadoop YARN cluster to tens of thousands of nodes by creating federations of multiple YARN clusters.

iii) HDFS Router based federation provides a new layer of software for federating namespaces so that the subclusters can manage their own block pools independently.
