    <title>How to mirror a Kafka topic with MirrorMaker while changing the topic name on the target cluster</title>

    <updated>2017-01-31T00:00:00Z</updated>
    <summary>By default Kafka MirrorMaker can only mirror messages from one topic into a topic of the same name on the mirror cluster, but by implementing a custom message handler this behavior can be changed.</summary>

    <title>Efficient bulk load of HBase using Spark</title>

    <updated>2016-10-27T00:00:00Z</updated>
    <summary>A simple process to demonstrate efficient bulk loading into HBase using Spark. The method used does not rely on additional dependencies, and results in a well partitioned HBase table with very high, or complete, data locality. This method should work with any version of Spark or HBase.</summary>

    <title>User name handling in Hadoop</title>
    <link href="http://www.opencore.com/blog/2016/5/user-name-handling-in-hadoop/"/>
    <id>bbddd9350c0a125b19b4c8e7d3d988e3</id>
    <updated>2016-05-19T00:00:00Z</updated>
    <summary>The way to pass user names to a Hadoop cluster differs subtly depending on whether or not the cluster runs in secure mode. Often, these differences are not fully understood and create issues, so in this post I will explain the basic principles for authentication based on the shared UserGroupInformation class in Hadoop.</summary>
