The briefcase cluster is a mobile MapR cluster to collect big data in remote places like offshore platforms or airplanes. It can also serve as a private cluster for individuals looking to bring data from different IoT devices together in one privately controlled cluster.

Requirements for a Briefcase Cluster
We need bandwidth – periodically
– 802.11ac theoretical max is ~7Gbps = ~900MBps
– Current 802.11ac hardware supports ~1.7Gbps = 217MBps
• 1TB of data moved in 80 minutes
No single points of failure
– Distributed metadata architecture and no NameNode
Simple mechanisms to move the data
– Fault tolerant
– Easy to automate

The Future of the Internet-of-Things
Should every device talk to
a remote data store and
always stay connected?
You want control!
